All right Ninjas here’s another sweet set up for my ‘Triangle trap’. I love this little set up as it works really well! Give it a try and as always, Happy Training!

Here’s a great counter and submission for when your opponent pins (or traps) your hand behind your back from your closed guard. I have found this counter to be very high percentage for me. Good luck and be sure to watch the second video in this series for another sick move!

The post Part 1: Defense & Counter Submission to 'Arm trapped behind back' (closed guard) appeared first on jitseasy.

This is a sweet little move that I recently “fell into” when I was working an “americana shoulder trap”. (americana shoulder trap video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vv3-SJ81IW0) In this video (like many of my videos) I show it as a “no-gi move”, even though it works for gi too. The reason I do this is that most of my moves translate to both worlds. In addition, I think it is easier to see the moves on video without the gi.

The reason I mention this is that a few of my subscribers have asked me if I train gi too because most of my videos are no-gi. The answer: I train mostly gi…probably 95% gi! I love no-gi and compete in no-gi all the time. I really believe that it’s pretty easy to transition from gi to no gi. (But nearly impossible to transition quickly from no-gi to gi because lapel / collar chokes change things considerably) The key is to add moves to your game that translate well to both worlds. A good example is the amerciana or kimura lock. Both work very well in gi and no-gi. The triangle is another great example. The triangle choke can be performed fairly easy with both gi and no-gi. The only real difference is in the placement of grips. (collar versus clinching the neck for posture control) So instead of focusing on what’s better, more realistic etc. I like to take the approach of developing tools that work well for both gi and no-gi. -Mike “spider-ninja” Bidwell

The post Your Ninja Tip: North / South Americana Shoulder Lock / Trap appeared first on jitseasy.

Here’s a fun little “Ninja Tip” a leg lace compression lock from half guard. This works really well on partners about your size or a little bigger. My experience has been that compression locks don’t work as well on much bigger opponents. Regardless, it’ a fun little move that will surely catch them off guard! -Happy Training!

Jiu-Jitsu Blackbelt Mike ‘Spider Ninja’ Bidwell founder of BJJ After 40 shares this choke that is PURE EVIL! Not only do you have 4 possible submissions from the worst possible position… you also might just make your opponent cry! Hence the name…”Cry-Angle” Choke… triangle or Cry-angle…Either way it’s nasty! (Arm / Leg-in Triangle Choke)
