Gracie Insider: Standing Mata Leao

[@slitherlock]

Thanks again Ryron and Rener for combatives...and to the entire Gracie family. God bless you all for your dedication to your art and for taking the time to teach others to be educated and confident and feel empowered. 1st stripe blue here I come!! Keepin it real all day every day.

@MrGarky I actually learned one other one against this specific standing variation, and usually works on taller guys (weak or strong). You grab the arm around your neck with both hands, one on his forearm and one on the bicep by the elbow. Step behind his outside leg and turn that way, and voila, he lets go and is take down. Finish with armbar, kimora, head-arm choke, etc.

[@MrGarky]

@mail9 There are escapes.... They're just not high percentage against a strong opponent. Use one hand to pull down on the "choking" arm which is around your neck, to create space between his arm and your neck and give you some survival time. Use the other hand to reach back and grab his "supporting" arm, which is behind your head, and pull that one out of place. Once he only has the arm around your neck, you have escape options such as a shoulder throw, or just ripping your head out of there.

i do gracie jiu jitsu AND traditional japanese koryu jujutsu, and it was the coolest thing for me to see that kick move to break them down, because it really shows the gracie roots in japanese ju jutsu. We do kicks like that aaaaall the time in traditional jiujitsu which is what gracie jiujitsu was based off of. this is awesome.

[@go_Addy]

Soon as I saw that palace I knew exactly where it was. Very cool you got to go there.

[@RodrigoVanilla93]

happy new year to the guys at the gracie academy!

[@BlockheadJiujitsu]

is this video about how to take out henchmen in an action movie?

[@takidabossen]

@JKDLIFER I agree to you there! however when a technique is very tight and finished for the closure! then it's nearley impossible to get out of it! however it is always possible to counter the technique before that happens! don't you agree?

[@BigWesLawns]

@ehukai2003 if the attacker takes your balance first like shown here you cannot move your legs to get a position. your natural instinct is to try to regain balance, at that point the choke is already being applied. if the 2 of you fall back the choke is still applied.

[@Vimat15]

how long does it take before someone passes out if you do this one?

[@ChrisTripp]

@mail9 no escape once the choke is in place, the trick is not to ever get caught in it. the only escape in my experience is a tap-out lol

[@Fufutae]

He's going to have time to scream for help though. Is there are more silent alternative when choking out a taller opponent?

[@kronnie1000]

i believe it is young Hulmania.. and what might be your inquiry?..

[@ehukai2003]

@Vimat15 It's actually possible to knock-out after about 6-7 seconds if you can completely shut-off the carotid arteries. My brother knocked me out a bit (a bit meaning he let me go after I went limp) and I didn't know I was choking because I could still breathe. I wanted to see how long it would take, too. HAHA!

[@WhtMike2006]

Sankaku Jime is the leg Triangle in most martial arts. (I was in the Bujinkan from April 1999-now. I stopped training two years ago, but I still pay membership fees. I train BJJ strictly now.)

[@daltonsbadboy]

as a soldier, you will have the weapons you need for backup. If you don't have a backup and your within reaching range you can disarm the bad guy. A riffle is easier to disarm than a hand gun.

[@JKDLIFER]

Nice. Simple but nice. There's always a counter to every technique. There are no "inescapable" techniques. However I would agree with an earlier post in that your best bet is never to get caught in this in the first place.

[@fedorlei]

right hand palm up to finish choke?

[@JKDLIFER]

@takidabossen Absolutely agree. Timing is everything.The best escape is never to get caught in the first place. The earlier you recognize it, the better. However I still stand by my comments that there are no such things as inescapable techniques. There's always a counter available.

[@takidabossen]

@takidabossen hehe yes i understand perfectly what you mean! that is some good words from you ;) do you train bjj personaly? if so what belt degree do you have?

[@Dudongo86]

I don"t train in the Gracie Academy but I think this technique is effective, even more against people who don"t train in a grappling art. Good technique, must be a little difficult in a bigger guy.

[@JissenDojo]

That's because Judo comes from Samurai Jujutsu, in the Bujinkan we have the original Samurai Jujutsu in our training.

[@AndrewTheTransformer]

make sure he doesnt fall into the river LOL :)

[@slopedawg1]

BJJ is a ground based martial art, its not meant for standing or for fighting multiple opponents. JKT6 is right, what you do is cross train and learn more arts. an artist usually doesnt just practice strictly with 1 medium

[@MDIS]

Excellent video and this does work really well especially if you deliver a strong and fast kick to the back of the calf muscle. Othern than the choke , i would opt for the neck-snap which would kill your enemy in less than 2 seconds. Another great from behind technique would be to stab him kidneys or ribs first , with your LEFT hand choking his neck. Hope that helps . Ciao

[@RomeoBarnes]

My thoughts exactly.

[@daltonsbadboy]

The choke should work in seconds...let him try to pass, choke him out. However, with that said, you should not MAKE a technique work, if your loosing position, transition appropriate to his move....Most beginners try to MAKE a technique work after they loose position. remember this "Position before submission"

[@JissenDojo]

Awesome- in Ninjutsu we call that Sankaku Jime

[@blackquiver]

thanks so much god bless u

[@chrokeii]

"This is where Saddam used to chill." HAHA!

[@STRpros]

this is where sadam used to chill......hahahahah

[@Danielangellinan]

Man, i was there back in 2004-2005...OIF II. GJJ All the way..thats the BIAP.

[@perdedor3571]

i like that. that way he can use an ippon seoi nage. =]

[@diomedes39]

i guess that you now determine what the gracies should and should not do now aren't you not only that but you seem to think that you can say what i should and should not learn

[@matejlj]

I can already see people who watched this, trying it on some random folks from behind...

[@Fufutae]

10 seconds to pass out. 15 to kill.

[@luchador1764]

i train bjj, but it seems like outside of the throws, the rest of the gracie jiu-jitsu standing game is just a bunch of tricks and cheap little moves which may or may not work. BJJ NEEDS A BETTER STANDING GAME!!!

[@daltonsbadboy]

maybe, we don't want to kill...maybe the enemy has information we can obtain....(not likely now with a weak postion on interogation).

[@WhtMike2006]

And I started complimenting Ninjutsu with Judo in 2001.

[@RyanOlander]

what happens if he doesn't put his gun down and he hears you coming?... anyways, cool move!

[@JKT6]

@luchador1764 you could just cross train

[@mickeyford]

Don't get caught in it in the first place. lol

[@kronnie1000]

where sadam used to chill.. lol key word, used to..

[@josh1212121]

@Vimat15 10 seconds

[@d.parasol]

Your technique is wrong then, because in a proper RNC the other guy will go unconscious in 3 seconds flat.

[@daltonsbadboy]

this is a response to matt357

[@TheSkullCrossbone]

maybe seoi nage

[@lagook]

yea some ninjistu people said that to bras rutten, that they would eye gouge him when he tried, he replied ok go ahead when u move to gouge ill snap your neck... ok lets start... wat you dont want to... o ok....

[@d.parasol]

v=Q6c61D0CEh0 Watch, from the time he starts applying pressure to when the guy goes out for a moment it's roughly 3 seconds. Same results here: v=vSVHgReJnew

[@fedorlei]

nah man palm down brah

[@JuC5574]

wait no hitler killed himself first and didn't hide in a hole
