The Diving Guillotine is great for at least three reasons:
1. It is a standalone submission opportunity in itself.
2. It is unexpected when entered into as a diving pass
3. It combines well to link into other chokes and front headlock attacks.

In this video, I show how the diving guillotine works as a pass and how to use it for either the mounted guillotine finish, anaconda, Darce or 100% style back take. Let me know if you use this technique / system already, and what else it can lead to in the comments.

My friend Scott Clawson and I recently got to train together again, and it is always fun to discuss different things we like to do. In this video, we each show one of our favorite collar choke setups from turtle position, with some great little details that make these extra nasty. Hope you like these!

Always be as safe as possible in training and competition. I hope these details help. Thanks as always for watching!

This video focuses on some options off the front headlock on the ground. Whether this was from a sprawl, reversal, snap down, etc., these are some good submission setups from this position. Apologies for the mishaps with the audio on this one, and hopefully it isn’t too distracting. Thanks as always for watching!

The Chopping Block is the common popular name given to the high mount position with the head and arm isolated. This powerful position is useful for setting up not only arm triangles, but arm locks, punch chokes and back takes as well. In this video, I show details on how to secure this position, as well as some solid options for submissions and taking the back. Hope you enjoy.

Quick recap from guard bottom material in class today. We took a look at guard bottom details, building off countering frames and back take options with honorable mentions to a head and arm choke and a trick to free the bottom leg of it becomes trapped.

Do you get stacked when you go for triangles from guard? It is the most common defense, along with posturing out. In this video, I offer a couple of solid options for countering an opponent who attempts to stack you to escape your triangle choke, and also an option for countering someone posturing out of your triangle. I hope these are as helpful to you as they have been to me over the years.

To start with, it’s typically a bad idea to attack submissions from bad positions, and that especially goes for when someone is on your back. But that’s exactly what this video is showing: submissions you can catch on the person on your back. And while this is a bad idea, and primarily for just entertainment, these can actually work and really upset the person in back mount. Check it out, and don’t forget to like, subscribe and share.

The triangle choke is the favorite submission of so many people…myself included. But setting it up and finishing it aren’t always the easiest tasks. In this video, I show common responses and defenses you’re likely to encounter with your triangle and how to dismantle or overcome them. I hope this helps.

It is important to have good leg attacks to combine with your guard passing, and the toehold from standing open guard is an extremely useful tool. This video shows the use of the toehold, how to secure it and a way you can threaten it in order to take the back in a really sneaky way. I hope you like it!

While teaching an Instructor Certification Course we took a little tangent to explore this knee bar I have been hitting in training from a side control escape sequence. The reason I call this escape sequence “superior” isn’t that it is better than anyone else’s, but just that it is better than simply settling for replacing the guard as the primary option. It can also not only gain you the top position in many cases, but can lead to submission opportunities like this knee bar see here.
•
Big thank you to all Paul with Midwest Krav Maga and the Fit to Fight Republic for the integration of this curriculum, and to those that have completed the instructor evaluation and certification so far. If you are near an FTF affiliation, make sure to check it out, and get some fantastic training!

While recently in Alexandria, Virginia for a seminar, we went to some outside locations to show some self defense considerations with a bit more context. This video shows some options if someone is approached aggressively by a person wearing a hooded sweatshirt or jacket.

This is a discussion about something that drives me crazy. All the things that people say they “would do” in response or reaction to a choke are very revealing about their level of training or their actual experience with applying or having chokes applied to them.
•
There was a recent “self defense expert” showing a pressure point release to a Guillotine Choke that was in the top 5 most unrealistic responses I’ve ever seen.
•
I’ve had countless comments on videos where I demonstrate and explain front headlocks and guillotines by the “just shoot/stab him” crowd about what they would do, which by the near impossibility of what they describe, reveal that they have never had this choke actually applied to them. But they have a computer and keyboard and an imagination and can lie about their “training experience” so they get a voice in the comment section unfortunately.
•
The breakdown in the conversation comes from lack of training, and people being dishonest with themselves about their abilities. My opinion is this:
Train real things.
Talk online less than you train.
•
Pretty simple. Hope you enjoy the video. Thanks to Ryan for doing this video with me and to Fit to Fight®️ México and the whole FTF Republic family.
