“Wait, what? I thought being caught in an omoplata means sudden death for my shoulder, or at least a sweep? How am I going to take his back?”

That’s what I try to show you in this clip from the Backtake Masterclass (w/ Craig Jones).

It’s definitely not the kind of concept I base my teaching around and it really is more of a trick, but boy is it cool to have. Try it the next time you get caught up in an omoplata and download the Backtake Masterclass to learn dozens of other backtake options!

Bactake Masterclass: https://bit.ly/2GMslUE

This technique was extremely useful to me coming up through the ranks. I actually remember hitting this at blue belt worlds to win one of my matches.

Once you get the mechanics down it is fairly easy to Hit on people.

I used it about five times last night rolling just to refresh myself on the technique. If you have a nasty knee shield or half Guard game this position more than likely has happened to you.

Half Guard Dog Fight Position Basic Sweep Attacks

Instrumental produced by Chuki.
http://www.youtube.com/user/CHUKImusic

Positions:
1. Dog Fight Entries
2. Knee Tap Sweep
3. Reversal Sweep
4. Limp Arm Back Take

This is another closed guard sequence. The purpose behind sharing it is to demonstrate the difference between branches (different options in a situation) and progressions (additional attacks in response to counter).

The more progressions that exist in a sequence the stronger it will be.

(Also a note, the arm pull back response generally only occurs after the sleeve drag has been initiated not before.)

Please watch: “One Key Detail That Will Make Floating Through Butterfly Guard Easier”

These are three attacks from kneeshield that I’ve had a lot of success with. They will give you a strong series in the position.
