Make Americanas Great Again

Gary Berger — Sun, 04 Jun 2023 13:58:55 +0000

The Americana gets a bad rap these days for being a low-percentage submission. That basically just means you don’t currently see it hit often in high-level competition. But ultimately, the Americana / ude garami / double wrist lock (lots of names for it) is a valid and powerful submission. It just needs some details.

In this video, we look at setups and finishing mechanics for this arm lock, as well as common mistakes that prevent it from working at higher levels. I hope this is helpful, regardless of your experience with this submission.

Included in this video:
0:40 – Basic Americana from Mount
2:55 – Breaking Anatomy
3:42 – Better Strategies for Americana from Mount
5:55 – Americana from Side Control
7:44 – Slot Machine Americana from Guard
9:30 – Americana from Crucifix
10:55 – Ude Garami from Kesa Gatame
12:00 – South Americana from Bottom Side

This is a short clip of a much longer series from my Patreon.

This is a basics class so I don’t go too far into detail on this movement.
But, this is one of the most crucial movements in grappling – and, one I see many BJJ practitioners have trouble with or not really understand the utility of.

I will explore this movement much more in my Escaping Side Control DVD that I’m working on.
