These moves shouldn’t really work. But for some reason, they are actually pretty effective. My friend Brandon Mccaghren, 10th Planet Black Belt who runs 10P Decatur, Alabama launched a Fake News BJJ movement recently, showcasing techniques that shouldn’t work but somehow they do. That inspired me to contribute to this idea by making a full YouTube video on the subject because there are so many interesting and contradictory views on what works, what should work and could work.

Technical mount, or kneeling mount, can be extremely tricky to escape. The top opponent has submission opportunities and is close to taking your back, not to mention the additional dangers if it is a striking situation.

These are some of the most solid escapes I have learned and that I use to get out of this difficult position. This video offers two early escapes and two late ones from both standard technical mount as well as with the gift wrap control.

I hope you like these and find them useful. Thank you for watching!

Here are a few unique opportunities that arise occasionally, which actually make submissions available from inferior positions. It is obviously better to gain the superior position, control and take the submission safely from there…however, sometimes the element of surprise from a bottom submission can take someone off guard.

This incredible video filmed and edited by Paulo Rubio, featuring me and Chino Ramirez, features narration taken from speeches of Alan Watts on the nature of choice. The words are as appropriate in the application of Jiu-Jitsu as in any aspect of life.

I hope you enjoy this video’s content. Lots more coming from my recent visit to film more with Paulo and train and collaborate with Chino.

Be sure to check out other amazing work Paulo Rubio has done with Aperture Fight Focused such as my DVD, The Bladed Grappler, available at ApertureFightFocused.com.
