As my friend, Seth Shamp, says “you don’t pass a guard, you untangle it.”
Here, I show a basic method of dealing with the lasso hook.

This is one of my favourite armlock set ups from the Closed Guard.

For me, it’s much harder to escape or defend because I don’t open my legs as much and he can’t use his other arm to help protect his trapped arm.

Note: This is a re-upload of a video I’ve posted before.
But, I’m re-editing some of my older videos and re-uploading them because I wasn’t happy with the way they looked (and I have better video editing equipment now)

Kesa-Gatame isn’t something that BJJ practioners use often which is why it can be so effective. Since, they don’t train it very often, they don’t train defending it very often.

I’ve release two Instructionals so far that have been very well-received (The Guillotine Code and My Escaping the Pin Seminar).
These are available here:
https://graciemuenster.com/store/

I’ve been working on a lot more but it takes time because I like to put out a quality, well-organized product – not just some random moves thrown together and taught quickly.

And, the one instructional that has been requested most is an explanation of my pressure and control game. This is the essence of MY BJJ Style and it works across the combative spectrum and for all ages and body types.

This will be a unique instructional in that it is based on giving you a deep understanding of the concepts and mechanics of how to pin, grind, control, and ride your opponent until they’re in such exhausted misery that they will give you any pass, position or submission that you want.

Other Instructionals that I’m working on:

* Wristlocks
* The Fundamentals of Grappling
* Headlock Defense
* The Back Game
* Butterfly Guard
* Sweeping with Taps and Picks
and more

Here is a great technique for when you attack the Kimura from half guard top and they defend by gripping their belt or pants.

I’ve been doing a lot of short videos for my school’s Instagram Page (Gracie Schwarzwald) and thought I’d start uploading some of them.

They’re not like my normal videos in that they’re very short (Instagram limits me to 1 minute) and not an exploration of the techniques in any great detail.

But, I still thought you guys might enjoy seeing them.

If you like my content, check out school’s Facebook and Instagram pages (Both are Gracie Schwarzwald).

Here is an Old School armlock from side control, specifically modified side control.
I like submissions like this because even if I don’t catch the submission, I still retain the position.

I’ve been gone for a while but I will be back making new videos.

I will be making a video soon explaining what’s going on but the short version is I have moved to the Black Forest in Germany and have opened a new school there called Gracie Schwarzwald.

Please find us on facebook and Instagram (Gracie Schwarzwald, in both cases.)

I am working on new content and new DVDs so please like and follow this page and my school pages.

Being able to fight or grapple from the Clinch is one of the most important aspects of Jiu-Jitsu.

Unfortunately, it’s also one of the least trained skills in many schools.

In order to have functional, self defense-based Jiu-Jitsu, you should spend as much time as possible practicing how to get to the clinch and how to maintain, attack, and takedown from there (as well as how to disengage).

And, as with anything in Jiu-Jitsu, it’s important to practice being comfortable in these positions so that you can make intelligent decisions on the most efficient option.

We take the submission, pass or sweep the opponent gives us not the one we want because that is efficient – and efficient saves us energy (crucial in a fight).

That said, one of the advantages of grappling over striking is the ability to manipulate an opponent into the position where he gives us what we want. We’re not forcing the thing itself but creating the environment for it to happen.

In this situation, I’m setting my opponent up for one of the most powerful and fundamental takedowns there is: the Leg Hook.

It’s important that I recognize the correct cue for which takedown applies so I’m not setting up the takedown so much as setting up the cue.

If you want to be able to effectively submit your opponent, you need to be able to control them first. It’s frustrating to pass his guard only to lose control after.

Even better, use your control to weaken and exhaust your opponent. This is the essence of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu – break down your enemy then attack when he is weak.

Cageside Concussioncast (now Dirty White Belt Radio) asked Royce Gracie Black Belt Roy Marsh to show you punishingly effective way to pin even the strongest or most flexible person from Side Control.

This way is great when you are doing No Gi and don’t have the grips you would normally have with the kimono. Add pressure to your sidemount!

Professor Roy also shows some tips on how to get to sidemount when someone is defending.

(Sorry about the noise but students were still trying to choke each other)

I joined Masters World Champion, Jason Culbreth (Royce Gracie Black Belt) at his academy and he showed me one of his favorite takedowns.

This is a great takedown that doesn’t take a lot of athleticism or agility and is easy to recover from if you miss it.
