Floating Pins, or Uki Gatame, are a category of pinning in Judo and Jiu-Jitsu that are versatile and powerful. This is due to the combination of stability and mobility they offer the top player. Knee on belly is probably the most famous example of this style of position, but other variations exist and are also very useful for eliciting submission opportunities. In this video, I cover examples including triangles, darce chokes, arm locks, leg attacks and more. Hope you enjoy it and find it useful.

This sequence is gold when someone is defending your Darce setup, mainly by keeping their head away (which isn’t wrong). You have the opportunity to create a weave pass to the opposite side, which may very well result in an opportunity for a step-over mounted triangle. Give it a shot!

The mounted triangle is one of the most dynamic and interesting mount attacks, and a great addition to your mount attack arsenal. In this video, I show some setups and finishing details for several ways of performing this submission.

Big thanks to Krav Oz in Germantown, Maryland where I filmed this after they had me out for a seminar. If you’re interested in having me for a seminar, message me here or on other socials or email me at eliknight173@gmail.com

Two great options from the chopping block: the mounted head and arm choke (kata gatame) and the back take to triangle (ushiro sankaku).

Rashguard from @toe_hold

One more Christmas technique installment. Since I posted this video and clips from it, several of you have coined the term “Elf Defense” and it’s too good not to use, so thank you guys for that.

This one is a mounted triangle from the gift wrap series. I hope you guys like it. And Merry Christmas!

What’s the logical next step after you pass a guard? Well, a submission, of course! Watch the video below to see how Atos HQ black belt Dominique Bell executes a sweet long step pass from spider lasso, then sets up a slick mounted triangle!

Professor Mackens Semerzier received his Black Belt from the hands of 7th degree Black Belt Master Pedro Sauer in July of 2013. He was a dedicated student at Linxx Academy under the watchful eye of current Coastal BJJ owner and head instructor Professor Nestor Bayot and Linxx Academy owner and head instructor Professor Frank Cucci. Professor Semerzier dedicates a majority of his success to the training and mentorship he has received from these two well respected instructors.

Professor Semerzier proudly carried the flag of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu into the MMA cage and proved the effectiveness of the “Gentle Art” against the best fighters in the world. Professor Semerzier has competed in both the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) during his MMA career. He is known as a “FINISHER” from his early amateur days in the regional area which followed him into his professional career, impressively ALL of his victories come by way of submission or stoppage by the referee. He has carried that mindset into his Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training and teaching philosophy. He is often quoted saying, “How real is your Jiu-Jitsu?”

Professor Semerzier retired from professional MMA in 2012 after winning the WKA featherweight title by second round submission to focus on finishing family and finishing his degree in business at Virginia Wesleyan College. In 2014 he completed an extensive and detailed instructorship program at the Gracie Academy headquarters in Torrance, California under the instruction of Rener and Ryron Gracie. Combined with his years of previous formal instruction the manner in which he can command a class is second to none.
