This Double-Threat Back Take is SO Powerful

Gary Berger — Fri, 30 Jul 2021 15:18:00 +0000

The Matrix is one of the most powerful attacks from the open guard. This video I discuss how to combine it with an omoplata and triangle attack. The triangle and omoplta are 2 of the most foundational attacks in jiu jitsu, but both are often countered by an opponent strong posturing out of the position. The matrix works perfectly for attacking the back at the exact moment your opponent postures, for my full overview of the matrix check out my video here. https://youtu.be/NjF4195IuW0

A Very Cool Heel Hook Defense That Takes You Straight to the Back

Gary Berger — Tue, 25 Jun 2019 05:06:16 +0000

Knowing how to defend, escape, and counter the heel hook leglock attack is super important. In this excerpt from https://www.grapplearts.com/modern BJJ black belts Matt Kwan and Rob Biernacki show how the berimbolo can be applied to defend and even counterattack the heel hook when your opponent has you in ‘ashi garami’, the most common and popular entanglement for leglocks. The berimbolo isn’t just a guard attack – it can be used to escape many different situations in both gi and no gi grappling.
