Stephan Kesting shows the easiest way to learn the swinging Kimura backtake. Download his free BJJ checklist at https://www.grapplearts.com/book

The Kimura isn’t just a submission; it’s also a great big bloody handle you can use to manipulate your opponent’s body in space and to swing yourself around him. The swinging Kimura backtake is a showboat move but it is actually quite high percentage especially if you use the Kimura to tilt his body sideways towards the ground (which also prevents him from stepping over you and doing an armbar counter). Give it a try!

The rolling kimura is a surprising way to pass guard that is increasingly being used at the higher levels of the sport. Here’s Elliott Bayev showing you it’s easier than it looks! From https://www.grapplearts.com/finishes, the 30 Second Fight Finishes instructional available in online streaming, app, and DVD based formats.

When I was a 3 striped blue belt my dad drove me down to train with Shawn Hammonds. While I was there Shawn made me drill this technique 500 times. No joke.

When I came back home to Chewy’s I was a back taking machine. I have been using this ever since. If you are a higher belt this technique won’t seem like much. But to a lower belt it is definitely a game changer.

I revived this question on my Instagram. He stated “I can get to the technical mount but I feel I am so tall I can’t keep control. Then when I go to the back I lose it. Please help!”

i am here to help! Here is how I like to take the back from the perfect mount. It is important as a taller grappler to learn when to compact and when to be long. The perfect mount is a time to compact and stay tight on your opponent. If not than you will lose the position.

The double Unders Stack Pass is a very powerful position. But, a trained opponent will recognize that he can make it very hard for you if he stops you locking your hands around his waist.

Here is an option for a quick pass to the back.

It looks like it requires a lot of strength but it is really pretty effortless.

I was asked this question on reddit. He stated every time he goes for the arm drag from guard he is getting to high up on the back. Are there any ways to fix this problem of getting up too high?

It’s easy to lose position if you are climbing over top your opponent. A few things we need to do. The most important is getting lower after you get the arm drag. You’ll see what I mean in the video. Once I started doing this I was able to take the back more effectively without the risk of going over the top.

Watch this video of Kit to learn how to confidently defend your feet in 50/50 guard using simple concepts and counter attack straight your opponents back using the crab ride!

Once you did that make sure to get the full details and more on the Backtake Masterclass available at https://kitdaletraining.com

I remember Kyle first teaching me this move. I was laughing at him showing it. I think I was like 14. I was thinking wow this looks ridiculous no way it works.

So I tired it out because turtle was one of my favorite positions at the time. It worked! I thought hm maybe just luck. So I tried again and again. I was hitting it all the time. I started doing it in tournaments and every time the person wouldn’t move on me.

I actually forgot about this technique and I’m just now getting back to using it.

We had same color kimonos on so I picked a technique that didn’t require as much movement so it’s easier to comprehend and see grips.

What’s so similar about Steven Seagal and Kit Dale? Both are great action movie stars. Both are martial arts icons. Both recently realized they might be Russian.

Watch Kit’s crafty grip and learn how to use it to get to a great position.

Once you’re done make sure to watch the full Russian Gripping Masterclass!

How to make the berimbolo sweep and backtake work in no gi by passing through a crab ride style control. Check out Rob’s free videos in the BJJ Formula and Modern Leglock modules in https://www.grapplearts.com/masterapp, the Grapplearts BJJ Master App!

“Wait, what? I thought being caught in an omoplata means sudden death for my shoulder, or at least a sweep? How am I going to take his back?”

That’s what I try to show you in this clip from the Backtake Masterclass (w/ Craig Jones).

It’s definitely not the kind of concept I base my teaching around and it really is more of a trick, but boy is it cool to have. Try it the next time you get caught up in an omoplata and download the Backtake Masterclass to learn dozens of other backtake options!

This technique was extremely useful to me coming up through the ranks. I actually remember hitting this at blue belt worlds to win one of my matches.

Once you get the mechanics down it is fairly easy to Hit on people.

I used it about five times last night rolling just to refresh myself on the technique. If you have a nasty knee shield or half Guard game this position more than likely has happened to you.
