Hi, guys. We're going to go over the Brabo choke, which is other wise known as the D'arce choke. We're going to start from turtle, but we're also going to hit it from a couple of other positions. All right. So again, Chad's sprawled out. I sprawled out, and Chad's doubled. Right. Now I can go for the anaconda and all this. Anaconda goes this way. The Brabo goes this way. Let me just switch sides. So if I were going to do the anaconda, I'd go this way. Doing the Brabo, I go this way. This way right here. Stringing my arm underneath his arm pit, saying hello, locking my hands in the gable grip. Now I want to flip him over this way. There's many variations here.
Sometimes you could just sit and lock here, but if you fail, you could be in a bad position. All right. So the safest variation, I'm right here, clap my hands, and I'm going to chop the crown of his head so he flips over. And he's right on his side. Okay. So once I get him on his side, I'm here, I like to switch my grip. So it was like this. I like to take a second and switch my grip and drive his head in. I shoot my fingers to the ceiling and whack. Now let me show you a little secret to the Brabo.
It's not arm choke. What I want to do is adjust my arm this way. So I shoot it deep, lock it, adjust my arm, and then shrug my shoulders while I bite this way. Okay. You've go to play around. It's a little hard to see this on the video. Okay. You've got to play around with this. The partner should feel a bite, a really, really painful bite in the carotid artery. You should not be burning your arms out. All right. Let's go over the whole choke here. A lot of little details here. One, two, tip him over. Switch the grip, fist down, grab, wind his head in, and shoot to the ceiling. When you shoot to the ceiling, the elbow should be right against his chin, very, very tight , killing the space. I lock up, grabbing my bicep, put it here. Now if I just squeeze here, it's all arm strength. Okay. Now what I do is I shift so my arm is parallel to the floor. Okay. And I just bite up with my wrist. Watch this, guys. Here. No strength whatsoever. Check this out. Look at this. No arm strength at all. Now a lot of guys hook the leg, and they do all sorts of things. You don't need to do that if you just do it this way. One more time, from turtle. Boom. Boom.
Tip him over. Shoot the arm through, all the way to the ceiling. Lock your bicep. Hand goes here. Don't squeeze him here. Adjust arm parallel to the floor. So I'm like this, parallel to the floor, but don't loosen up. keep it tight, but adjust. And then bite your wrist as you shrug your shoulders. One more time. One, two, three. Shrug your shoulders. Bite your wrist. Watch this. Very tight, tight, tight. Okay. You can also hook the legs and do other stuff, but really you don't need to. That's the Brabo choke.

[@juraj3315]

I appreciate the details on getting the tap as I often get into the darce but struggle to finish it.

Cheers mate from Australia, I'm loving your lessons really good Cheers

Really interesting...you're so good for explain it, thank you very much. Spécial thanks from France hi hi hi 👍😎

[@Dmmartin141]

Slick technique Coach! I liked the wrestling terminology used as well.

[@YawehthedragondogofEL]

It's the tipping over that doesn't always go so smoothly for me.

[@Lone_Wolf_91]

Roman Brown Need to sort out ,small, details to make it, good to ask partner to resist so u can pick them up on your own ;) Make it super tight on neck is biig part

[@navajo2293]

That gable grip and the forearm making your opponent collapse are the most crucial part of this

[@nlytend1]

Thanks for this, I was missing the small details involved in properly and effortlessly executing the move.

Excellent! I've seen people hook the leg and squeeze the arms with all their might to get a tap. This professor's method is much better.

Hello Sir im fan of you and this channel ..by the way.. may i humbly suggest for you to create a video tutorial for escaping from an opponent sitting on belly and punching heavy.

[@chrisbaldwin3148]

What's the best submission in BJJ? It's the one that immobilizes the opponent before application of the sub. I love the way this video shows how to remain in base while taking away the opponent's base and mobility. Oss!

You mean the d'arce knight!

[@zenmindclub]

I watched this video this morning. During open mat, nearly got this, but didn't put the guy on his side.. >_

[@AliDaoudi]

that was really helpful . but my sparring partner is much heavier and stronger i couldn't force him to turn over. any tips , or other moves when up against a bigger opponent?

[@OVRDSE]

I also have the same problem against the heavier guys.

[@nottadoctor]

Instead of locking your hands behind his head, try grabbing the back of his neck with the under hand and grabbing his far arm with the other hand. Pull his arm under and across his body and he'll just tip over. Just make sure you put your weight down on his arm so he can't shrimp out.
