Check out the classic arm bar from the guard. These videos will be short in length and instruction to a minimum. Short cues will be provided. The techniques we will go over are a great start for all white belts to reference while preparing for their blue belt test at our academy.

Escaping back control is tough. If your opponent gets your back, you’re in trouble. A confident escape plan is key. Use your hips, legs, and the floor. Defend the submission first, then escape.

If you can elevate your opponent off the mat, you then take away the ability to generate power. Let gravity do some of the work, while your arms and legs can help steer.

Float passing is a great way to deal with being elevated. Develop balance by activating your core, posting a hand on the mat, and using hip rotation to defeat the butterfly hook.

Good single leg defense starts with stuffing the head. Bring your opponent's chin to their chest to break their posture to the turtle position, setting up a 3/4 nelson.

Have an end goal in mind. Be ready to adapt until you get there. The ultimate goal of Jiu Jitsu is control leading to submission, and there is not a better position than your opponent’s back.

Redirection of force. This is a principle that repeats through out all martial arts. Find a way to take your opponents energy and use it for your own advantage.

Force a grip exchange. One of our goals should be to use positional pressure to force your opponent to change their grip.

We can use the shin staple as a solid position of control. When we start stapling appendages, it starts to tip the scale of control into our favor. This can help us break past the barriers that guard players put in front of us.

[Greg Walker @G_WalkBJJ]

As a grappler we need to understand we can not sprint for the entire match. If we attack at full speed and force, we are bound to fatigue. If we monitor our pace and intensity we can use it like a gas pedal.
