Classic BJJ Technique: The Hip Bump Series With A Few Unique Details

Gary Berger — Fri, 02 Feb 2024 03:21:17 +0000

Today, we will be exploring one of the classic attack sequences from the closed guard. It starts with the hip bump sweep, then switches into two different attacks based on the opponent’s reaction.

It’s been around for longer than I’ve been training. In fact, I learned when I was a white belt. But since then, I have made some small adjustments through years of exploration, teaching, and learning.

Check out the details for each technique, and use them if you wish.

Closed Guard Attack Sequence for White Belts (& Everyone Else) | Jiu-Jitsu Fundamentals

Gary Berger — Tue, 28 Nov 2023 16:15:29 +0000

Much More at Patreon.com/KnightJiuJitsu

White belts are people, too. These options in this video are timeless, they work at every level, and I think they are great to learn early as possible, so that is why I geared this toward white belts / newer people. The main differences in basic and advanced moves are these:
1. The timing it takes to pull it off
2. The degree of simultaneously moving parts required
3. The sensitivity required to see the opportunity

There are other factors for sure, but those are some of the most crucial. Having said that, the techniques in this video are great for all levels, and I hope the details I point out are helpful. Please like, subscribe and share!

Submission Modifications for Street Fights | Jiu-Jitsu Self Defense

Gary Berger — Tue, 31 Oct 2023 14:30:57 +0000

Submissions are potentially the best way to control and subdue someone, whether it’s grappling competition, MMA or a street fight. However, there are ways to apply submissions that may be good for certain contexts, which could be very dangerous if you apply them the same way in a fight with no rules. This video is a discussion and demonstration of how to practice submissions with slight modifications to make them safer and more effective for street fight / self defense conditions. Hope you find this helpful.

Huge thanks to David Heineman @staysafemartialarts and Mike Cheney @boomboomcheney for being part of this discussion and video. Amazing guys you should be following.

1 of the Easiest Ways to Finish Mounted Guillotine Chokes in BJJ

Gary Berger — Fri, 06 Oct 2023 17:51:46 +0000

Today we have a question from a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner named Jacob, and he asked HOW to finish a mounted guillotine choke.

He said that he’s able to sweep his partner’s over and get into the submission but struggles to actually finish the guillotine choke if he’s in mount.

So, to help Jacob, and anyone else who’s struggling to finish this choke in BJJ or MMA, I’ll break down the basic ideas of finishing the submission, both in guard and on top.

Hopefully you find a couple of the ideas in this video useful for you.

Do you have a System and are you Working to Improve it?

Gary Berger — Thu, 20 Jul 2023 13:00:52 +0000

A friend of mine once said, “the only techniques you know are the ones that you can execute live.”

I’ve known so many people that try to learn every technique under the sun but most of those are irrelevant if you can’t make them work.

The better plan is to build a system and constantly work to refine it only adding techniques that fit into that system.

Then, the battle plan is to funnel them into your system. The way I explain it to my students is “You don’t have to be great at Jiu-Jitsu, you have to be great at YOUR Jiu-Jitsu. And, then make your opponent fight in the arena of your Jiu-Jitsu.’

But, again, rather than learning a lot of random techniques to convince myself that I am very knowledgeable I’m more focused on expanding or refining my system.

The first clip is a technique I use a lot because it’s vital if you play guillotines to stop an educated opponent who understands he needs to pass to the safe side.

And, I still use it all the time. But, because I use it all the time I was able to work out one of the weaknesses of it.

And, that is if I’m really working to drive his head down from the Butterfly guard for a more effective choke then my hooking leg becomes weak and it’s harder to keep connected to his leg.

Therefore, it’s harder to keep the hook and sweep him if he then jumps to the safe side.

So, I’ve developed some techniques to deal with this.

In the second clip, you can see one that I use.

I use my back leg to block and catch his leg so that I can reinsert my hook and complete the sweep.

This is why it’s important to develop your own system and then work to constantly explore it and increase its effectiveness.

Then your combative goal is to learn how to funnel your opponent into your system.

This is a far better use of your time than learning all the “best” techniques from a bunch of random systems which don’t actually fit together.

One final note to understand my system here. Often after, I sweep, I will post my foot on their hip and elevate my hips. This allows me space to readjust my grip and to use gravity into the choke.

But, Frank here is incredibly strong and was doing a good job hand fighting. So, I concede the reversal because I knew that he’d have a harder time fighting my hands on bottom and because he’d have his hips elevated which would mean I could easily sweep him and get back on top if I wanted.

Diving Guillotine for Attack Style Guard Passing

Gary Berger — Tue, 16 May 2023 13:06:42 +0000

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.

Peruvian, Guillotine & Rear Triangle Flow

Gary Berger — Thu, 27 Apr 2023 14:58:10 +0000

Some options from the turtle, with and without the connection to the leg. Peruvian is a great direct attack. The reversal to mounted guillotine is a good one if they connected to the leg like a failed takedown. And if the mounted guillotine doesn’t land, the 100% to back, or in this case, rear triangle.
