How It Works

Stop watching.
Start mapping.

RollMap turns your BJJ knowledge into interactive decision trees — so you train smarter, not just harder.

The Problem

The old way doesn't work.

Instructionals are expensive and passive

You pay $100+ for a video series you'll watch once and never go back to.

You forget 90% of what you watch

Without a structured reference you can actually use at the gym, the knowledge evaporates.

Videos are linear. BJJ isn't.

Real rolling is a tree of decisions — every position branches into reactions. Videos pretend it's a straight line.

The Process

How RollMap works.

Step 01

Build Your System

Open the visual canvas builder and you'll see a starter template waiting for you — a starting position with a few branches already drawn. Fill in your own positions, sweeps, and submissions by double-clicking any block to edit it. Add new blocks and drag a connection between any two to map a flow. Draw loopback arrows when positions repeat to show how your game cycles back.

Step 02

Map the Reactions

Every connecting line is labelled with an IF statement. When your opponent does X, you follow the branch to Y. This isn't about memorising moves — it's about capturing the decision logic behind your game so it becomes automatic under pressure.

IF: opponent bridges
→ Transition to leg lock entry
IF: opponent turns away
→ Take the back
IF: opponent goes flat
→ Maintain side control, work the arm
Step 03

Train With It

Walk through your system on your phone at the gym — the full tree is always visible and zoomable. Before a roll, review your game plan. After a roll, trace back exactly where the decision point was. Over time, the map becomes the muscle memory.

Node Types

What each block means.

Every block on the canvas has a type that tells you exactly what kind of moment it represents in your game.
