The AWESOME LEG LASSO Into LEG BAR Entrance…we looked at something similar recently – the lasso into catapult sweep, which is one of my favorites. If you have the time take a look at that video. This one uses a similar process but moves into a leg bar. Which is a brilliant submission and really hard to stop. It’s actually much easier than it might sound. Take a look at the video. Give it a try on the mat and let me know how you go!

I try and roll in a long sequence with my students where they come in fresh one after the other after I’ve had a good rolling session during class. This keeps my cardio up and ensures that I need to keep on top of my game. Take a look at this video where I use some of the techniques that I’ve spoken about in previous videos. If there are some moves that I use that you would like me to cover in future video tutorials. Please just ask in the comment box below. Enjoy!

An easy mount escape – straight into a footlock. I love this as being mounted is a really tough spot to be in…and to turn that around into a tap is fantastically rewarding. The best news is that it can be done. I do it all the time and so do my students. Check out this video to see the details of the technique and then try it yourself on the mat. Let me know how it goes…

This is a very simple choke that used to be or often was the first choke taught from back control. It is now often not taught until much later in a student’s Jiu Jitsu journey. Still, you can learn it very easily. Just watch this video and then give it a try on the mat and let me know how you go…

Special guest Jean Machado – from https://www.youtube.com/user/LiveTheMachLife/ …teaches how to get into the Kimura and then into an Omoplata. Some great advice and little tricks and hacks in this video. Check it out and try it yourself on the mat. Let me know how it goes.

If someone were to ask me the pass that I use the most. The pass that I use at the highest level. Then this might just be the one. Not because it is tricky or hard. But because it is simple AND super effective. By the end of this video, you will be able to do it as well. Try it out on the mat and let me know how you go.

A quick Vlog from my Jiu Jitsu Training Trip in Dallas, TX. I’ve been training hard…and there is nothing like a plunge into a cold pool after a hard days training. I’ve been thinking about how we leverage different attributes in BJJ. People bring different characteristics to the mat…some its youth, some its flexibility some its strength and some its cardio. Thinking about your various skills and weaknesses and that of your opponents can shape the way you approach a roll. Remember to work and leverage your strengths and try and exploit your opponents weaknesses. Listen to this quick travel vlog as I discuss this in more detail…

You might remember my video on the Awesome Roger Machado American – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xscg5rfunbc

It’s such a brilliant technique. You might have also seen me use it a few times in my rolling with my students. It is incredibly effective and deceptively powerful. Don’t underestimate it.

And I’ve been super lucky to have the Legend – Prof Roger Machado himself talk over the technique for you guys. I hope you love it. Try it out on the mat and let me know how it goes.
