Upcoming Guillotine Seminar at KineticsBJJ in Belgium

There are two key tactics that are core to my game in this short clip.

First, is that when I am on top I give my opponent two choices: stay on their back and essentially pin themselves or get on their side in order to try to escape and give me the Guillotine.

I’m happy to let them get stuck in this dilemma.

The next core concept is “the threat of a thing is as almost as good as the thing itself.”

The sweep I do here looks like no one should fall for it but I’ve caught white to black with it many times. Because I am always threatening the guillotine, many will compromise their posture up and away from me which gives me all my forward sweeps.

You can see a longer breakdown of all the times I use this 1-2 punch in this breakdown video: https://youtu.be/uOqwrrI0xTM

I will be teaching a seminar on my Guillotine/Front Headlock Game at KineticsBJJ in Belgium on April 23rd. if you want to learn it in person.

If you can’t attend, I have DVDs on my Guillotine Game and also my sitting guard game (and other topics) at my website: RoyMarsh.Selz.com
