[@carzoparazzo9698]

[@carzoparazzo9698]

JAJAJAJA

[@adrianb6193]

5 setups in 6 min, you KILLIN it Coach!

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

Great stuff Adrian. Yes having multiple ways into techniques you are working on is key so you can get high reps during rolling because you have more than one way in! (-: Coach Tom Davey

[@peoplefocused1453]

Absolute BEST D'arce Setup video on KZbin!

[@GoshGollie]

The fact that he is so nice and genuine makes him even more terrifying

[@kjedi0242]

The darce @ 4:00 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥I’m definitely going for that one today

[@adammittermeier4623]

Darce city tomorrow! These videos are priceless! Love them!

[@yodizzll]

great video, I've been doing more darce chokes and I have realized that it is simply a matter or looking for them, once you do that you realize that they are freaking everywhere. again, fantastic video, that last one blew my mind!

[@juntjoonunya9216]

Anywhere you can start an overhook it seems. And other entries I'm seeing here in this vid...

[@ritteand001]

Hey coach! This was the first darce video I watched and it changed my bjj game. Now I see darces everywhere! Thanks!

[@seanko_jj]

I love the side control set-up.Thank you

[@TheFineolase]

Straight to the point, easy to follow and very easy to understand. Quality content like all of your videos.

[@jeffdoeskungfu]

such a soothing voice. i can just imagine him lullabying his opponents while their consciousness fades into the d’arce-y abyss

[@Josh_Jackson]

Darce and Ezekiel are my favorits as well! There's just so many ways to get to them. But I always tune in to learn new techniques. He's just an unbelievable coach:)

[@byrne763]

Awesome mate

[@RTMoney]

Great demonstrations! 👍

[@safescissors]

I am a white belt and have been lost on what to do from side control other than maintaining the position. Thanks for helping me add some extra things to my repertoire.

[@PeterValdes]

Coach Tom explains the steps so well. Go Aussie!!!

[@Rbugland]

Very nice, thank you. I really like the arm drag setup. Slick.

[@mma_nny]

Thank you so much for this content 🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@aaronholland2771]

Because of you Coach Tom I have fallen in love with the Darce! ❤️❤️

[@jeszdav]

Excellent, thank you!

[@Brian-qo1sd]

Excellent instructionals on the Darce choke. Forced to pick a favourite, I reckon the reaction to an attempted pass is just beautiful. We all hope to control fights & to frustrate attacks by smothering passes etc. at their earliest stages but nothing breaks a heart quite like a reactionary attack when an opponent thinks they've took the advantage. We know that because it sucks like a brand new Dyson when it happens to us. Loving this one! ;)

[@charlieruisseau2476]

Amazing, thank you coach Tom! I love the 4th one!

[@AlvinHazelton]

Wow! That's so clever! Great training lesson! Thx!

[@JoelDiaz04]

very nice. I liked the setup on the 3rd 👌

[@jrtien]

I have been almost catching this a lot lately, but I had never studied it. What a dumbass I was, but this video has given me hope. Thanks!

[@cjhall44]

Lots of options with that setup,I like that. Thanks coach Tom

[@tommeofficial251]

Professor Tom amazing videos I've watched all your darce videos and today at open mat I managed to apply it just having seen your videos in sparring it was a fantastic feeling to know I sunk it down sweet it squeezed both guys with ease. I'm still a white belt so we weren't taught how to do it but no one expected it from me and worked very effectively. Thanks again Professor Tom regards brand new white belt John.

[@MultiBlahdiblah]

These were great

[@joshroa9111]

wicked

[@Septynor]

Really love the one from sidemount, perfect! Tyvm

[@charmed479]

Cool variation. Never tried it with switching base. Was taught to grab the forearm not the bicep, with elbow on mat, lift forearm for pressure. So many nice setups, will be watching this one a few times.

[@patrickmartinez2129]

Wow. I just had a lightbulb moment, thank you!!!

[@karls738]

It's going to be one of my favorite chokes. Thx man!

[@SikhJedi]

Thank you so much sharing your knowledge Prof Tom! Love these setups!

[@aqdjbcr]

I’ve also found the d’arce tons of times when people try to get out of side control and they use an underhook, they basically give you the d’arce. Loved the side control setup you had, I will absolutely use that the next time I roll

[@bowmanmccullough3759]

Thank you!

[@brianbarton5103]

love the one from side control

[@Daniel_Cooley]

Thanks so much for the video! I've been struggling to finish a couple of guys in my gym from side control, I'll definitely be trying that one out!

[@raderws]

Going to try these. Thxs professor Tom

[@ema3247]

Awesome! Thank you Sir! Much respect!

[@breakology]

I'm a tall guy, long arms so I love the darce! Your video was very illuminating, helping see darce chokes everywhere. I watched this video about a dozen times, caught a quick darce tonight from a toreando pass attempt. Felt super natural, thanks Coach! Do you sell Team South rashguards on your site? Would like to get one and show some support for everything you are doing for the BJJ community.

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

Awesome and very kind of you. We have had some TGA ones made up in the same design but will for sure elt you guys know when they come in and are available. Thanks for the support. (-: Professor Tom Davey

[@lunazhang6010]

The second one is mind blowing. I feel I lack of imagination for bjj.

[@igorobradovic2669]

You now honestly, i am watching this now half year after i started hardcore playing Darce. If only you knew how this changed my game to the core. I dont know why but your and Lachlan Giles videos are really good for me and i am able to implement everything you guys are showing. Danaher is cool too. Anyway thank u😎

[@amlkbb]

Perfect> Gonna try this all week

[@theknowmads2697]

great stuff! Awesome and simple breakdown.

[@koshurkott7621]

I'm gonna use some of them today. good luck to me!

[@thereformedrant9592]

Fabulous! Thanks for the video.

[@brandonleaton9660]

Would love to come and train with you guys for a few days in the future. Really enjoy these instructional videos to add more to my game!

[@MrHeathcliff83]

[@idontgiveanf3713]

[@sdzachar]

[@lazarenkoka]

cool

[@BadNewssz]

Got tapped by this today. Such a quick choke didnt even have time to fight it lol

[@valentinoROSSIgam1ng]

Wooow...impresive...thanks dude..

[@seanferris631]

the best and nicest BJJ instructor I've ever hear, btw that rash guard is sexy

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

Haha thanks Shane. Happy rolling (-: Tom Davey

[@curtis25920]

Hey coach Tom! I have a special move called the omoplata knot and was wondering if there is any way for me to send you a video of how to do it or something. It’s such a great submission that I just want to get it out to the jiu jitsu world somehow

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

Hi Curtis, you could film it and put in on youtube and send me a link perhaps? (-: Coach Tom Davey

[@khc2019]

I want to see it

[@nealpeterson9714]

Thank you very much for these videos. What is the significance of placing your thumb between the figures as apposed to a basic gable grip?

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

That grip allows for rotation one way (tightening) yet not easy to break. Try it for yourself! (-: Professor Tom Davey

[@m.t.mclaughlin4117]

Can you do a vid on a gogo?

[@JasonNahRealFitSG]

Is there a way to do a darce choke easier with gi? Most of the videos I see are with no gi

[@ivanprivalikhin5916]

This is a joke, it's soooo good compared to the other vids, just curios; the reason you roll after securing the choke is to posture so you apply more pressure or more to expose the opponents neck so it's more tighter?

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

get to lount to add pressure. Rolling just puts them in position. (-: Professor Tom Davey

[@pursuitfarms]

Wait you keep saying you’re running around to parallel. You mean perpendicular ?

[@ChickenMaster7]

Is it possible to get a darce choke from a front headlock position?

[@karls738]

Problems I see here. 1. This turtle, here shown in this video is very bad. Watch Trutle Seminar from Priit Mihkelson. This turtle does not allow a Dar'Ce Choke Set Up shown here. 2. A more likely set up as the shown guard pass would be a starting positon from knee on belly.

[@a.j.626]

These are all stealth 100

[@ryanmac2166]

Hi Tom - love this variety of darce set ups!! One of my fav chokes. The set up from 3.10 when you turn and run your body over his head around to the other side I imagine its critical to use your hip to keep his arm trapped on the inside otherwise there is no darce? Sorry if this seems like a dumb question just want to perfect this one ;-)

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

Yes Ryan, your hip is what rolls their arm and shoulder over for the D'arce. If they don't want to roll you can simply hit the north south choke that was uploaded recently. (-: Coach Tom Davey

[@juntjoonunya9216]

Omg! Who are you? Where's coach Tom??

[@ChesterTaylor-u6t]

Clark Helen Hernandez Jason Jackson John

[@American-BadAss732]

You know in a legit dirty street fight the darc choke could be a good set up to knee the dude in the face when you're on your knees and hes down on his side...just an observation..lol

[@ryanmac2166]

Hey Tom - hows thing? Mate just started training no gi and just wanted your opinion on what you would consider a hierarchy of submissions without the gi? Attacking the feet is probably high on the list but what upper body options do you like personally? Thanks

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

Leaving feet out of it as their place in your arsenal can depend on rank, school, etc, The main nogi attacks include guillotine,, RNC, armbar, Americana, ALL head and arm style chokes including kata gatame/triangles/darces/anacondas, etc) and wrist locks too if we are going to leave neck and spine cranks out. They are the main ones and most guys specialise in just a few of them. Happy nogi rolling (-: Coach Tom Davey

[@7005andre]

Sneaky sneaky 🌚🌚🌚

[@chrisredig1381]

Hair less version

[@fatkungfu1972]

Lovely bald look mate!! 👨🏼‍🦲👨🏼‍🦲👨🏼‍🦲

[@brendanortiz1742]

yo. this is bugging the shit out of me. it's perpendicular. you're running around to perpendicular to your opponents body. 2:00
