Sometimes it is difficult to get back to the guard from side control when your opponent blocks your hips effectively. If you have already gotten to your side it can be a good option to escape to your knees to have more opportunities for escape.

In this video we show some options on how to re-guard, sit through armlock and a bonus technique to end up in mount.

Today’s question comes from Levi Schwartz:

He asks for me to show a back take that he saw me hit while watching a recent BJJ rolling video of mine here on the YouTube.

The Back Take came from a scramble with one of my Jiu-Jitsu Brown Belts, Charlie, and in this video, I’ll show you how I set it up & how you can look for it, should you have the chance to do it while rolling.

The position we work from to get into this back take has a lot of names in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

But it essentially started from my partners hip switch, from side control to reverse side control, which exposed his back and gave me the space I needed to execute the technique.

I did this technique in the Gi, while rolling, but you can modify it for No-GI Jiu-Jitsu as well, which is what I do in this video.

Hopefully you guys enjoyed the technique!
