This post is credited to Jason Contreras, because he’s done most of the wording and I’m just writing it down.
Walking is falling. It is calculated falling, where you consistently catch yourself...mostly. When you pick your foot up, you have a trajectory in mind and when you set it back down this controlled forward falling progress continues. So what does that mean for BJJ? Well we do our best work on the ground. So we have to make people fall. If you stop the step but the trajectory continues people fall. This applies to both takedowns and sweeps. At the base level, all takedowns and sweeps are stopping someone’s ability to catch themselves as they move in a given direction. When you tie in kuzushi with this concept it becomes “shockingly effective”.
