How to Correctly Set Up The Knee Cut Pass

This video I go through one of my favorite ways to set up the knee cut pass. A lot of people focus on the details to finish the guard pass they pant, but it is much more important you learn the right situation to go for the guard pass then your finishing details are perfect. In this video I discuss setting up the knee cut vs an open guard and also how to defend the lasso and knee shield.

Such a great teacher. I love how there is such emphasis on conceptual understanding and not just remembering unconnected and disorganized movements

[@alvarocorral1576]

Why have I never thought 💭 using a frame?? Thanks 🙏 Jon!!

[@trubb1e]

I’m new to Bjj and we’ve gone over this pass many many times in the short time I’ve been there but never have I learned that there was a “proper time” to do a certain pass. Just that part, for me, is so helpful. Learned in 7 minutes. Thank you!!

[@jerryh2954]

This is a good tip. I normally focus on the underhook and I see it is completely unnecessary from this example. The frame and push the shoulder to the ground looks like it will work much better.

[@karlitozwei]

Understanding when to use the underhook and frame was a light bulb moment for me. Will give this a try. Thanks!

[@wcbjj7780]

Great stuff on knee cut pass. I like to underhook, but after you explained the frame and using your weight to bring their far shoulder down, it gave me a different perspective. Thank you.

[@SasukeUchiha0.0.0]

Me too ive always looked for underhook when i do knee cut pass.

[@jon0830]

amazing details! its like using your body to frame against the knee shielding leg

[@michaels8297]

You're such a good teacher

[@ulvard]

Will try the frame instead of going for the underhook next time. Makes perfect sense the way you explain it. Thanks allot, this videoformat was great 🙏

[@davidquaid8549]

Super helpful. I really appreciate all your videos- great details and explanation. Thank you!

[@secohen73]

You're an amazing coach, Jon. Thanks for all the great content...even if I can't make it work yet, lol.

[@ryanimpink13]

From the first word uttered, you get my like but really, really, I needed to hear this! I've been trying like crazy and of course it wasn't going to work...now it's so obvious, I was letting the shoulders free. I'll be trying this tonight! Oss! Hug from Brazil, happy holidays!

[@luisbarrientos7322]

Great explanations Jon especially that last part (collar grip or undertook). You shoot in like a dart to mitigate the leg or knee from causing a problem. Thank you and keep up the great work.

[@maurjmp]

[@SashaLenskyj]

Great details. Thanks!

[@austmo516]

Lmao best comment ever. Lightroom is a powerful application.

[@DMiddle]

These videos on the guard passing are exactly what i been looking for . Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I had a couple questions . 1. could you do a video on passing guard when the person in guard grabs collar and sleeve and 2. How would you position your feet with out them grabbing them and hitting a sweep or tying up your legs ? Are you just pressuring so they are on the defensive and there back is flat and are your feet are slighty staggered ?

[@otiscrosbie7859]

Very helpful

[@jarrahwestende702]

Hi Jon, not sure if you will see this. My hair is of similar length. My hair is long but not long enough to tie up in a pony. How do you keep your hair out of your face whilst rolling?

[@ismael_crzmj]

Thanks for the technique bro How old are you?

[@georgemakary5127]

John where is your school? Sweden?

[@teodycue]

LOL @ 7:00
