Episode 43
Sunday, 29 March, 2026
In this episode of the Tai Chi Notebook Podcast I’m joined by Chris Paines, a BJJ black belt from Staffordshire in the UK.Chris gained a level of fame in the BJJ world for a seminar he taught at a BJJ Globetrotters camp called “How to Defend Everything”, which was wildly successful, especially when that seminar went on YouTube. It got over 100,000 views.Chris has gone on to develop a system for teaching Jiu-Jitsu that he calls Elements and which can be found on the BJJ Fanatics website under the name ‘Strategic Guard Passing and Pinning’.You can also subscribe to Chris’ Patreon which is called In Theory BJJ. I’ve known Chris for a few years now and rolled with him and attended his seminars a number of times and I've always found his ideas original, innovative and inspiring.In Theory BJJ: https://www.patreon.com/intheorybjjInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/intheorybjj/The Tai Chi Notebook blog: https://thetaichinotebook.com/
