Mastering the fundamentals of the rear naked choke is about control, not aggression. Our instructors provide detailed guidance on hand positioning, body pressure, and finishing the submission safely.

The 'running man escape' is a dynamic BJJ technique for escaping side control. This drill teaches you how to use your legs and hips to create movement and transition to a safer position, like the reverse triangle shown here.

This video demonstrates the details for finishing a triangle choke. We teach you how to adjust your angle, control your opponent's posture, and apply pressure correctly to make the technique effective.

The 'ghost escape' is another option for getting out of side control. We teach a variety of escapes because every situation is different, and having multiple tools allows you to adapt to your opponent's pressure.

Here, we review how to escape side control when your opponent has their arm over your head. You will learn how to use frames and shrimping movements to create space and get back to a neutral or dominant position.

Establishing frames from the bottom is the first line of defense in BJJ. This video shows how to use your arms to create a structural barrier against your opponent's weight, giving you the space needed to escape.

Our training connects techniques in a logical flow. This demonstration shows how to transition from a sweep attempt directly into an armbar, teaching you to capitalize on your opponent's reactions.

Understanding the half guard position is crucial for both offense and defense. We teach the fundamental concepts of underhooks and whizzers, which are key to winning the position battle on the ground.

The Tomoe Nage, or circle throw, is a classic sweep that uses your opponent's forward momentum against them. This is a great example of how we teach you to use leverage to take an opponent to the ground.
