Love when he says "I wait I'm patient" such good info here

[@ronque23]

Nagev Samurai So true. Details like that are key for white belts who wanna sap all their energy when it's not even productive.

[@scubaproful]

This guy is amazing teacher .

[@Waafa]

By far the best teacher on youtube.

[@FatNinjaWex1]

your videos are awesome, i teach american kenpo and study kyokushin...you've convinced me to get serious about bjj and jj, thanks stephan...time to find a dojo

[@ronque23]

Thanks for these techniques, Stephan. I've used your triangle defenses pretty effectively. Really like the Lion defense you just showed.

[@karuvuariyo]

You're a wonderful teacher, thanks for the video!

[@ArabianKnight87]

this and your kimura defense videos are excellent fundamentals that I'm going to add to my game thanks Stephan you're a great teacher

[@JoeyMcPeace]

Amazing technique as always! Tap the hip and pass gracefully! :D

[@markrodriguez1168]

Thanks for the tutorial! I watched this months ago, when I started jiu-jitsu, and some how the ninja star escape was the one that became my default escape. I had forgotten what it was called and I've forgotten to use my other hand to grab my hand w/ s-grip so I've been doing it single handed

[@adolfoforonda3363]

I bought this app 100 years ago, it was totally worth it. I can’t count how many times the hand on bicep saved me from an arm bar. Thanks Stephan!

[@kristiisham3711]

These are awesome! I had a guy today arm bar me like three times! 😂 I’ve been doing bjj for like 2.5 months, so I’m not very good at all. But, these are great techniques to help me out! Thanks, Stephan!

[@justoldog]

Thank you for so unselfishly giving us this great info!!!

[@lake_cooper]

Love your videos, Stephan!!!

[@numice]

I usually watch your tutorials, very detailed and helpful, especially with no gi stuff. I wish there was an armbar escape from mount as well.

[@davinannamalay9472]

[@admiralsuperior3]

I did not know you can here someone in bjj. great vid

[@vala7248]

you should make a video with the both of you guys in an actual grappling match that would be great to look over and see the different techniques

[@billy520god]

Thank you😊

[@dalion82]

The lion killer defense has worked best for me but given that I have "trick" shoulders (they dislocate), I'll have to try the ninja star defense more often too. Nice vid as always...

[@Djent7779]

Love that gi

[@chrissilva5659]

Haha badass I discovered one of these on my own the other day as a way to make my arm more stable and stronger to counter his two to my one

[@francoss1994]

Cheers og

[@inocentekiao]

[@ItsOverNEINTHOUSAND]

Stephan, thanks for the great video, do you have any effective techniques for escaping the scarf position? I am desperate for help :(

[@markhercelsalvani4479]

hoping I can start my journey in grappling after pandemic

[@chugns1481]

Your videos have priceless information! Good show. If only, I don't know, EVERYONE that Rhonda Roussey has fought watched this video, we'd have better entertainment XD

How to shut down the armbar from the guard How to Defend Against the Armbar from Guard

[@scottdixon3306]

Another Great Informative Vid Thanks for posting !

[@Daggerfall40]

Great video. You forgot the "pick him up and slam him on his head" defense lol

[@SalTarvitz]

7:02 Perfect KNOCK KNOCK sfx

[@KillDozer44]

its one of those things where it soetimes works sometimes doesnt its a risk

[@j.c.9302]

Was wondering for the ninja star defense, with the C grip you had your right hand (the side defending) over on top of your left. Could you have your left hand on top instead with the grip as it would put your right thumb in a quicker position to hit their chest? Or would that be too awkward of a position and make it easier for them to finish the armbar?

[@simpsone3]

the 'wiggle the arm' part might be hard if you are wearing a gi, especially if you're up against someone really strong

[@byeo9001]

Woah, new graphics.

[@RexFairchild]

When youre in that armbar position can you just flatten out and pull the armbar?

[@mutaned0]

and you actually post this on a jiujitsu technique video?... nice.

[@ryanm1776]

Anyone else get the vibe that he yells at Richie after the camera is off?

[@wandermag]

Adoraria que os vídeos fossem legendados :/

[@isaaccox737]

7:13 if you swing the left leg around when he hits your chest is there a potential mir lock?

[@papijelly]

the "punch" per say is a good move I like it for self defense. But if I use it in the gym wont they get mad about it as it is a strike per say.

[@de0509]

Lol I like it when the technique require the opponent to "get excited". I get that too. When you wanna try something you always tend to want to keep trying until you fail miserably and the opponent just gets out. Or is it just me

[@RickMerchantttt]

Just remember, you only need get your elbow passed his groin. The couple inches make a huge difference. Obviously not saying it works every time.

[@straightblast100]

Also - at 7:11 just keep driving your elbow with all your weight into his stomach/bladder area. He will let go - I promise you.

[@DeagleBeagle]

straightblast100 Things like that are frowned upon in the sport of jiu-jitsu. You are supposed to get out of things by technique, not by inducing pain.

[@straightblast100]

I prefer reality...wherever and whenever I can find it. peace

[@DeagleBeagle]

straightblast100 And what you are saying is typically allowed in MMA. And no you don't prefer reality. Would you really want to practice with someone who uses eye-gouging, hair-pulling, stabbing, shooting, etc? Some things you can simply not train for. You can show people how to eye-gouge but it probably will be almost useless in a real fight for a lot of those techniques since you cant do them very well since you cant practice them on anyone and thus don't get better or have any muscle memory. They do talk about the fact that someone can slam you in real-life when they teach full guards in jiu jitsu and many other things. Seems like you have never been to a jiu jitsu class and want to say it is bogus. Come out to any jiu jitsu gym and try whatever you want on them, slamming, hair-pulling etc as long as they agree to it. They might not agree to everything but they might want to take on a challenger.

[@straightblast100]

Studied JJ for years. Left it for Catch Wrestling and then integrated Kina Mutai. You made a presumption...and then a highly laughable pronouncement.

[@SandrockCustom]

DeagleBeagle Sorry to break it to you sunshine, but inducing pain IS a technique in itself and is an important part of the martial arts. Also, I practice eye gouging.

[@FunnyRumel2]

wouldnt suggest it, because 1. not everyone is strong enough (either because of physics or attrition from fight) 2. you always only have about 1 second time to choose what to do, because its not a choke but an attempt to break something, which really only takes contracting muscles once the technique is applied. you dont wanna just blindly try to defend by slamming, because you might be too slow or he might not let go 3. usually you have mats and a thick gi, so it wont hurt much to get slammed

[@bryansilva2697]

Does hitting hin in the ches is not a fault in BJJ?

[@kurupt187x]

i love jiujitsu thats all i can say

[@studentpsy1972]

NINJAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

[@Jonq360]

Your the fucken man.

[@berner]

Oh cool. So the lion kill is basically like a game of catch, but with the guy's leg.

[@SteelRhinoXpress]

7:04 that and it's illegal during grapplling tournaments to hit people in the face in which you'll get points deducted from you or could even get DQed if you hit them in the nose or the eye hard enough.

[@kallenijs]

I can see how the guy was confused. Since Stephan often caters to the small and nimble ("if you're more flexible than me .."), he might explain the slam to the big strong guys. I'd be genuinely interested, not for bjj or grappling, but just in general. Not sure to what extent these videos are limited to 'just grappling, no mma' techniques though.

[@rvbCabooservb]

How do I defend the armbar from mount?

[@videolife101]

A better technique which I do is to put my knee on his butt and push off. The leverage allows me to pull my arm out.

[@chaosdweller]

I've invented a arm bar escape that's worked against........ 2......more experienced opponents, and I realize how ridiculous and arrogant It sounds but it's happened twice! anyway I guess the point is , idk if I should focus my mental energy elsewhere or listen carefully? it's a dilemma , if ain't broke don't fix it, but at the same time u can't know too much BJJ, so idk maybe I should go watch a video over and over on some of my weaknesses?

[@straightblast100]

At 6:36 you cleared his leg with very little effort. Why not do this everytime?

[@edwardskrod]

lol

[@afreiden]

When you grab your own bicep, why don't you use your free hand to push his leg off of your face? Seems safer, although I suppose you end up back in guard instead of in a passing position

[@duked19]

At 0:07, when Ritchie still has his hips on the ground, and his legs are straight up in a V-shape position, if Stephan saw the armbar coming, would it be possible for him to escape by quickly withdrawing his right arm (twisting his upper body), between Ritchies legs/groin?

[@Crystals10000]

ive yanked my arm out of a few armbars ive predicted so id say yes

[@DivineYoung]

I'm here because of ronda rousey...lol

[@wrestler-kickboxer2524]

You're afraid that you might meet her one day so u should learn this just in case.

[@avy0010]

Divine Young same I seen her fight and learning this shit to prevent armbar

[@kooksies5712]

besides the fact he was joking, it's illegal to slam or pike someone in BJJ competitions

[@randomspectator39]

I'm probably gonna forget all this in an actual fight

[@sam.s3696]

Lol at 4:52

[@adamromero]

haha

[@SadmanVan88]

fart roll @3:50 lolol

[@shibuyagto]

You must be fun at parties...
