Toreando pass – Counter to face push.
BJJ Basics. #bjj #guard
One of the key concepts of guard passing is that the legs and the head can’t be on the same side. It is a concept that can be used for the passer and an even more valuable concept for the guard player. If someone tries to pass your guard, you need to push his head towards the direction of the pass, and your opponent will not be able to pass. Another conclusion from this concept is that if your opponent’s head is facing one way, you’ll know the direction of his pass.
One of the basic and most important ways to block the Toreando pass is to sit up, move your hip to the opposite direction of the pass (to get the proper angle for the push) and push his face towards the pass.
It is a bit counter-intuitive because your opponent “offers” you one cheek, but if you push it it won’t stop the pass. You need to push his face in the other direction he is facing while passing.
Learn this, and it will help you in ALL of the guard passes.

In this video, the passer counters the face push with a simple change in the direction of the pass. We learned that if my head is facing one side, the pass needs to be from the other side.
When your opponent counters your Toreando pass with a face push, he “propels” the pass in the other direction.
.
If you are interested in how to prevent this counter, pushing his face is only half the work. Your goal while pushing his face is trying to stand up in base as fast as possible. You need to kick the leg back while standing to break one of his grips on your knees.
