Kurobi’s full-screen 3D viewer playing an armbar from mount: the camera turns around the two fighters, Flip sides swaps top and bottom, and the scrub bar steps through the moves from S-mount to the finish.

Keep the details you learned in class.

You see a technique once in class, and by the next session the details are gone. Kurobi keeps them on your phone: watch a technique from any angle, read the key details and common mistakes, and find the notes you left each time you trained it.

Step by Step

Every technique, from setup to finish.

Each technique has a written guide: the setup, the move and the finish, then the key details and the common mistakes. Most also have selected instructional videos that play right on the page.

Watch it in 3D while you read. Turn the camera, flip to the other side, or go one move at a time.

What’s Next

Know what comes next, and what to try if they block it.

Guides link to the techniques that start where this one ends, and to the ones to try when your opponent shuts it down. Tap one and keep going.

The spiderweb entry from mount in Kurobi: its What’s next and If they block it rows of animated technique cards, a swipe through them, and a tap that opens the armbar from spiderweb.

Explore

Find any technique by any name.

Browse by goal: submissions, back takes, control, passes, escapes, sweeps and takedowns. Or search by the name your coach uses, in English, Spanish or Portuguese. “Juji gatame” finds the armbar.

Save techniques to collections to look over before class.

Kurobi’s Explore tab: a tap on the Escape goal jumps the list of animated technique cards, then typing “juji gatame” in search finds the armbar from mount and opens it.

Training Log

Log what you drilled, rolled and competed.

Pick the techniques you worked on, top or bottom, and add a note to each. Set how long you trained and how it felt, and for a competition, where you placed.

The next time you open a technique, your notes from earlier sessions are right there.

Logging a drill in Kurobi: Log technique on the armbar from mount opens a new log, 15 minutes is picked, How it felt is dragged up, a note is typed on the armbar, and Done saves the log.

Your Game

See the shape of your game.

Kurobi spreads what you log across eight goals, from submissions to takedowns, with rolling next to drilling, so the thin spots stand out.

Open any technique to see how often you logged it, on which side, and when. Techniques you haven’t logged in 30 days show up as gone cold.

Kurobi’s Analysis tab: an eight-goal web of rolled and drilled techniques unfolds with a count under each goal, the list of logged techniques and Gone cold scroll by, and the armbar from mount opens on its own history.

The Crate

Not sure what to drill? Let Kurobi pick.

Open the crate and it deals you one technique: one you logged lately, one going rusty, one gone cold, or one you’ve never logged. Tap Drill to start a log with it.

Kurobi’s crate: three taps slam the crate open and a card flips over with the dealt technique, a kimura from closed guard last logged 38 days ago, playing in 3D above Drill and Deal another.

Learn. Drill. Log. Repeat.

  1. Study the technique.

    Watch it in 3D and read the guide before class.

  2. Take it to the mats.

    Drill it with a partner, then try it in your rolls.

  3. Log what happened.

    Note what you drilled and rolled, and see where your game is thin.

Questions before you start

A journal only holds what you wrote. In Kurobi each log lists techniques from a 3D library, so you can replay a technique, read your earlier notes on it, and see which goals you drill and roll the least.

Give your next round a clear focus.
