How to Sweep from Butterfly Guard when Half Guard Isn’t Working

How to Sweep from Butterfly Guard when Half Guard Isn't Working

Sometimes in BJJ the Half Guard just isn’t going to work and you’re going to need a different position to switch to.

This is the case especially if you have a good Half Guard. You’ll get known for having a good Half Guard and Half Guard Sweeps. And your opponent will begin to defend against it during rolling or a BJJ competition.

When this happens you have to find a different way.

In Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training or competition. When someone is able to stop my sweeps or attacks from Half Guard. I switch off to Butterfly Guard.

Butterfly Guard links directly to Half Guard so it’s an easy switch as you’ll see in the video.

And along with that, it’s kind of a crossroads to multiple guard positions. From Butterfly Guard I can switch back to Full, X Guard, Spider Guard, Etc. With very little adjustment needed.

In this BJJ technique video I show what I like to do in Brazilian Jiujitsu when I am forced out of my Half Guard. I link this together with a really quick, simple and effective Over Under Sweep from Butterfly Guard.

I hope it’s useful.
