The most powerful and valuable escape from mount position is definitely the elbow escape and it’s variations. In this video, we look at the specific details of how and when best to apply this escape. Additionally, we look at counters to common obstacles the top opponent might use.

The Chopping Block is the common popular name given to the high mount position with the head and arm isolated. This powerful position is useful for setting up not only arm triangles, but arm locks, punch chokes and back takes as well. In this video, I show details on how to secure this position, as well as some solid options for submissions and taking the back. Hope you enjoy.

This shoulder wrap type of clinch from guard is interesting and fun. I can not only lead to some great sweeps, transitions and submission setups, it can act as a counter-measure against some passes and offensive movements your opponent may throw at you. As I mention in this video, I learned this from Greg Nelson some time ago, and I have been playing with it, trying to get a deeper understanding and make it my own. Here are some of the best, highest-percentage uses I have gained from it. Hope you guys like it!

We discuss how to set it up against a non-skilled opponent as well as against a skilled jiu-jitsu practitioner. We cover a few ways to use it to finish the fight but also how to escape it.

Whether you call it Americana, ude garami, double wrist lock, key lock or some other name, the branch up shoulder lock is a basic but powerful submission in grappling. In this video, I show how to apply this lock in a variety of positions, with multiple entries and combinations. I hope you like it!

The Gift Wrap Position is a powerful modification on the technical mount, which gives you a lot of control over the bottom opponent. This allows you more ability to transition to the back, set up submissions, as well as great striking opportunities.

In this video, Jared Jessup and I explore the technical details of achieving, controlling and manipulating this position. Hope you like it.

Just calm down…”Anti-Fundamentals” is just a way of saying these violate a lot of fundamental principles we are taught as rules about positions and submissions. These are definitely not go-to subs and they are inherently dangerous, but they are also very sneaky and unexpected. These also make some great Hail Marys for when you’re losing or have lost position and you are desperate. Hope you like them!

This video was inspired by some concepts I gathered by watching Malachy Friedman’s work on what he refers to as The HeisenGuard. This guard configuration adds a lot of leverage to some bilateral set-ups for sweeps and submissions.

There are lots of options and opportunities, and in this video, with the help of Jared Jessup, I show the main entry to Omoplata, a back take option, a truck entry and a sweep to mounted triangle.
