4. Repeat the moves over and over

Leaders of victorious academies in Jiu-Jitsu and MMA, Andre Pederneiras (Nova Uniao) and Sylvio Behring (Winner-Behring) don’t fear being repetitive when they assure that the motto is to persist and persist and then persist some more when it comes to position-training.

I find #4 one of the most important...repetition makes things come automatically to you when you are rolling. Doing something only a few times doesn't ingrain it enough.

Coincidentally, Sylvio Behring was my instructor's teacher...maybe I like it because it is so familiar!
