I completely forgot about this defense until I was playing bottom mount with one of my students and it came back to me. Hope it helps!

The post Cross Collar Choke Defense from the Mount. appeared first on jitseasy.

One of my Patreon members asked me to cover a problem he’s having. He likes to pass low and tight (as do I).

But, one of the dangers of this style of passing is that you are susceptible to the Guillotine choke.

And, often when people get caught in the choke their instinctive (and learned) defences just push them into bigger problems.

So, I made this video to show him how I defend guillotines – and it all begins with understanding how the choke works and how to prevent their choking mechanics.

The post Get the Underhook & Sweep without getting choked!! appeared first on jitseasy.

No one is going to give you an Underhook at the higher levels of the game. Eventually, if you favor Half Guard, your game becomes centered around tricks & kuzushi.

The post Escape the North South Guillotine appeared first on jitseasy.

Recently, BJJScout posted a video of a person getting submitted by a forearm choke in an MMA fight (picture in the thumbnail).

They asked if this was a dirty move in training. To be specific, the move is simply where someone who is mounted on you presses down on your neck with their forearm.

What is mind-boggling to me is that anyone in BJJ would think this was a dirty move and wouldn’t allow it in training. There are of course moves I don’t allow during rolling but I still teach how to defend those moves.
Because it would be irresponsible for me not to. But, I’ve met a lot of students who didn’t learn how because their coach just said “don’t do that because it’s dirty.”

I find this instinct amazing for a few reasons:

* First, and foremost, this is absolutely one of the most common attacks an untrained person will do to you. And, if you’re not training how to defend it then you’re basically unprepared to deal with a common real-world attack.
So, if you are not training to defend this, then you really are unprepared for real self defense. This is what I mean when when I say BJJ schools are teaching people how to defend BJJ but not to defend against the real world.
But, this might be why I submit a lot of bjj people (who know how to defend all kinds of esoteric BJJ techniques) with this choke.

* It’s amazing and embarrassing that this guy didn’t know this very basic defense. It’s actually taught in the original Rorion & Royce tapes that many BJJ people say is too basic and outdated. And, yet, I’ve met very few BJJ people who know it.
A lot of much more dangerous techniques are allowed at many academies and are not considered dick moves. A forearm choke is certainly far less dangerous than an inverted heel hook.

* Many BJJ practitioners and schools portray themselves as Spartan/Gorilla/Viking/Sharks but having to deal with someone pressing their arm on your neck is a step too far?

So, here I show how to defend this submission. Again, I’m not teaching an escape (obviously an Upa is an option here). I’m teaching the Defense. First, you have to learn how to defend a move for when you can’t immediately escape.

Used in the UFC by Chris Weidman, Randy Couture, and Brock Lesnar, the head-arm (or arm triangle) choke is a fight-finishing submission. Lucky for you, Coach Vince teaches not only how to secure the choke, but also how to defend and escape this position.

I learned this at my first seminar with Pedro Sauer. I’ve used it a lot over the years. It’s best to not get your neck wrapped but if the choke is coming this is a nice surprise.
