A viewer asked about how to open the closed guard.

I go over one way to do it and discuss how to approach the idea of opening and passing as well as some fallacies people have about it.

I am working on a Guard Passing Instructional that will go much more into depth on how to open guards (specific angles and pressures) but I think this is a good option to master.

If you like my particular focus and style of teaching, you can get this kind of instruction almost daily for only $10/Month.
