Welcome visitor.

Disclaimer: Jiu Jitusu and Martial Arts, like any sport, involves a potential risk for serious injury. The techniques used in our video clips are being demonstrated by martial art professionals and are being shown solely for entertainment purposes. The video clips are not a substitute for professional instruction and supervision, and no one should attempt any of these techniques without proper personal instruction from trained instructors. Anyone who attempts any of these techniques, under supervision or not, assumes all risks. Submissions 101.com shall not be liable to anyone for use of any of these.

Warning (kind of): While we have made every effort to bring things to you in a straight forward manner, the viewer should also realize that we tend to be tongue and cheek at times. This means we'll joke around and have a good time with the site. We ain't about being 'stoic, serious, and in ya face'. Have fun with the site. Use the videos which help you. Discard the ones that don't. Ask you instructor about things. If our videos drive you to want to join a gym or expand your JJ knowledge or even get you to ask your instructor about something, then WE'VE DONE OUR JOB.

Opinions: Everyone's got one, we know. Our you tube page is full of them. All comments are approved before being posted to save our pages being riddled with spam, trolling and assholes in general. There are both negative and positive comments on those video too, but if your comment hasn't appeared it could be because of 3 reasons 1) the comment was nothing short of rude or stupid 2) we hadn't gotten a confirmation email telling us that you posted (this happens a lot with you tube so I have to go through them once a month to see if we missed any or 3) it just didn't get posted.

Since it is our site, we feel we should have control over all the content. It is our right after all. We simply want to get people interested in jiu jitsu or expand their game some how. For well over a year now, we've been doing that with success.

Background: there has been some discussion on my martial art background which have led some to to interpret me as a BJJ Black Belt because I sometimes wear my Japanese JJ belt with what some call a "BJJ gi" in some of the videos. I am not a BJJ black Belt. I wear my gis (koral or vulkan) because they are the best damn kimonos I've ever owned. I personally do not think it denotes a style. I find this view point very limited. However, I have written this section to clear up any misunderstanding that 'some' of you might have.

My official rankings include:

10th Planet Jiu Jitsu: Purple Belt under Eddie Bravo

Aikido: Shodan (1st Degree Black Belt)

Japanese Jiu Jitsu: Nidan (2nd Degree Black Belt)

This site is about Jiu Jitsu, submission grappling and self defense. As our "About Us" clearly states, it is about more than one style. The site is designed to help those who want it.

We get thousands of visitors a day and receive hundreds of emails per month from beginner to experienced jiu jitsu, judo, sub grapplers, wrestlers and martial artists. We thank you for you support. Its been great!!!

In a day and age where there is so much negativity out there, I want to avoid it and not add to it.

I hope this sits well with critics and friends alike.

Train hard. Train well. And do what works for YOU!

With Respect,

Ari Bolden
