Jiu Jitsu tends to have trends with passing styles and guard styles. Pressure passing for a long time was discounted in lighter divisions but more recently it has been making a return. Andris has some of the best details I have seen on pressure passing systems, what I like about these systems is they are easy to implement on someone before they establish a guard they like to play, which allows you to pass without putting your self in too much danger. Look out for more videos soon with Andris as well as another upcoming Q and A soon. Comment and let me know your questions and request for the next Q and A.

This video I discuss the concepts of how I go about shutting down the open guard. I categorize Passing Open Guard into two different aspects, One is passing before your opponent has established any particular grips or guards on you, and the second is learning how to shut down each individual guard separately. It’s important to learn how to pass and become comfortable in many different Open Guard positions because the reality is you will often not be able to pass before the establish at least one grip. Let me know your thoughts on which positions are giving you the hardest time.

How to over-under guard pass has changed over the years, fromThe Pressure Passing System (https://www.grapplearts.com/pressure). In this video 6th degree black belt Fabio Gurgel shows how the over-under pass was created as a natural combination of the stack pass and the torreando pass, and then how it has continued to change to adapt to new ways of countering this position. This is a fascinating glimpse into the history of BJJ.
