(Patreon Unlocked) Self Defense | Managing Initial Aggression

Gary Berger — Wed, 30 Sep 2020 10:22:44 +0000

Self Defense training is far more than just a series of headlock escapes. This is where many schools fail their students by not giving them the training in the non-technique aspects of a conflict – the ones that actually teach any Self Defense, that is.

One of the other big fallacies in most Martial Arts Self Defense training is that fights start at full aggression.

There is often a build up of aggression and to be effective in staying safe, you need to know how to manage the aggression (both verbally and physically) while attempting to de-escalate it.

This means understanding ranges and how they must be managed, as well as angles (two of the four things I always teach to control in any conflict).

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

My New Instructional is Available!

Gary Berger — Thu, 17 Sep 2020 13:44:43 +0000

BIG NEWS!
My new BJJ Instructional is out.
I recently traveled to BJJ Schwerte where I taught a 2 day Group Private on my Back Game.

Mirco Wendt and the students there were kind enough to let me videotape it and release it on my Selz site.

In this seminar I focused a lot on how to control the back and also how to make fundamental submissions more effective.

And, as with my other instructionals, I try to really provide conceptual frameworks so you don’t just get a bunch of quick techniques with very little detail that you’ll forget as soon as you leave the mats.

If you’re interested, you can find the instructional (and my other ones) here: https://roymarsh.selz.com
Also, I want to give a big thanks to Erkan Mete for filming and to Björn Fiegler for being my Uke.

From the Headcoach of BJJ Schwerte:
“The back control & attack seminar was again an amazing seminar with you and covered lots of details I kind of missed out or did “sloppy“ through my almost 10 years of grappling experience.

Now as I am able to review the seminar again online, it is even better .

I can’t thank you enough, Roy. Of course, as a bjj purple belt I knew “some“ backmount control stuff before, attacks like rear naked choke and bow and arrow choke, you name it, but never in such details and in depth like now after attending the seminar.
It was an eye opener and all of our team could improve our skills and knowledge immediately.

The fundamentals about back control you taught us really skyrocketed our performance on the mat and gave us a deeper understanding of not only how to do certain things, but why!
For example I first learned the rear naked choke in 2010 and hit it for sure hundreds of times in rolling, but now it is 100% tighter and more effective
See you soon for the next seminar.

Mirco Wendt

Escape the Switched Hands Side Control

Gary Berger — Mon, 14 Oct 2019 10:28:00 +0000

It can be especially difficult to escape side control when your opponent switches their arm position. You’re also in constant danger of a kimura attack.

This effectively stops the re-guard – and if they’re keeping weight on you, you may not be able to turn over for the single leg escape.

Here, I show an option for when you’re trapped in this position. As with most reversals, it’s important that you practice your timing and getting the feel for when their weight is compromised.

The "Jesus Armlock"

Gary Berger — Tue, 27 Aug 2019 09:04:38 +0000

This is one of my favourite armlock set ups from the Closed Guard.

For me, it’s much harder to escape or defend because I don’t open my legs as much and he can’t use his other arm to help protect his trapped arm.
