Jiu-Jitsu Escapes | Ways Out of Side Control, Scarf & Knee on Belly

[@tomanderson848]

Whenever I am googling a BJJ move, I'm always glad to see that Eli has made a video on the subject.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

I’m glad that happens too! If you ever have a question I haven’t tackled let me know and I’ll try.

[@dukenukon6397]

I agree! As a day 3 white belt (literally watching this before my 3rd class) I've watched many videos from many instructors, and I can say that I enjoy his break downs thoroughly. I'm still in system overload, but he makes this crazy intense art seem feasible!

[@nopiehardianto4273]

[@tommyv5435]

When I'm searching for anything BJJ, my search starts with Knight Jiu Jitsu..."

[@marcusJUJUalty]

@@dukenukon6397 how is your bjj journey going my friend 🤙🏾

[@danflanagan9536]

"whenever there's space, there's opportunity" 11:29, well said--now I understand what to look for

[@cool_piglet]

whenever there's space, there's bar

[@daves6195]

I am a forever white belt guy, but these are the simplest videos to understand thanks

[@chrisgoods]

I just want to say THANK YOU so much for that first knee on belly escape.. I hit it twice tonight. It's gold....I've upgraded a lil bit more. Thank you again !

[@ShaunVictor2507]

Those knee-on-belly escapes are great.

[@mikelambert6636]

Love these. If only I could remember them while I'm rolling 😭

[@vconsumer]

pick the ones that the ring the most with you and try to focus on them.

[@staceyeve9249]

Right!? Same here...I often vapor-lock and go blank. 😑

[@functional_elements]

That shin escape 🙌🏽 yessss thank you!! 🤙🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@gregstokes7117]

Man I have SO MUCH to learn. This is AWESOME.

[@ferulloscoasting6432]

I’m one month into my journey with BJJ and I’ve been using KZbin to augment my regular training! Let’s just say your videos have me getting out from much better guys.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

That is awesome to hear! Thank you!

[@timmyxuereb3083]

Same for me

[@mrrob5851]

Ferulloscoasting ! His videos help my as much as you. I’m learning ju jitsu at a place that doesn’t speak English. So I’m visually learning. But Knight ju jitsu helps me tremendously. Keep going. I’m 8 months into my journey.

[@jayrolopez]

Same, a month in as well. I’m progressing so much watching these videos.

[@mattkeen3811]

3 weeks since I started, we've been working side control escapes and submissions every session so far, including scarf hold. This is gold. I struggle to remember everything most of the time, but I love how technical it is

[@ole-martinblestrud6305]

JonthomasBJJ has a really good video on beginner mistakes for guard retention and side control escapes that helped me tons... I think you should check it out

[@finburns]

Its so interesting because this advice is timeless. 5 years old, and to me, its today years old. Great stuff - Thank You. Hopefully tonight when i role, my belly will thank you.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Glad it was helpful! And glad it stands the rest of time

[@stevej99]

you're videos are some of the best concise and detailed bbj videos ive seen. thank you sir

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thank you! That’s a great compliment!

[@hueguy]

2:11 Really slick move there. Thanks !

[@johnd6258]

I’m in the middle of “experiencing” the how, when and why of these escapes. Some of the other peeps in my classes seem confused as to why I’m not going spaz when they get in side control and mount. With pointers like on this video, I’m becoming able to see and take opportunities when I recognize them. Even portions of these moves/escapes work in other situations. 🙏🏻🙏🏻 thank you Eli! Good stuff right here.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

That is really awesome to hear. I appreciate you leaving this comment and I’m super happy this video helped with any of that.

[@LifeGQ]

Half of these views is me

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Hahaha! Well thank you thousands of times!

[@LifeGQ]

Millions of videos and yours are by far the best.

[@jrmbayne]

Which half

[@jeffycoolmoney7635]

William Schrimsher 😂😂

[@nataliebrunnelle2547]

I'm the other half

[@ericojrenriquez1653]

I like how he demonstrate and explain every step.He makes it look too easy.

[@halelorf]

Fantastic video! Knee on Belly is always a killer, I'll have to play with those two escapes.

[@richr108]

I’m a Krav practitioner and as such we do just enough groundwork to get back to our feet. Always a pleasure watching BJJ guys and how they set things up to escape. New to your videos Eli and really appreciate them.

[@scorpion32]

Jesus ! if only I saw this video first on how to escape the scarf hold. I could've avoided so many beatdowns lol you make it look so simple

[@LS67NOVA]

Phenomenal video!! As a white belt stuck in a major rut/plateau, thank you for posting this!!

[@MrSkinahh86]

This is amazing! I have a new one to try in class next week! I can’t wait! Thank you so so much!

[@nathannoakes448]

These are so sharp 👌 nice and clear, and loads of good ideas, thank you 🙏

[@grantgrant8554]

I pulled that side control elbow escape method on a purple belt in no gi today. Thanks for the great instruction.

[@nikolaybyutyunev3216]

So much knowledge in just a couple of minutes, thanks, you will save my ass on the tournament I have this Saturday.

[@Agape11]

Mr. knight! you are a dangerous man! Thank you for repeating moves and explaining so clear!

[@shaunwalters55]

First, a proper thank you. These videos are choice and your teaching style is effective. Second, a request for passing the knee-shield!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

I appreciate it! And that is a good idea for a video. Initially I would say it depends gi or nogi, but definitely a topic worth exploring!

[@ankuraditya1562]

Keep them coming , love your videos champ !

[@wolftoothco4007]

I looked up so many channels to study I drilled these with my teammates in gi class, I gotta say these are some of the most efficient escapes I could of asked for awesome work. Thank you osssss!

[@pilatesholly]

Thanks for adding the disclaimer that it is dependent on what energy is coming from your opponent!🙌🏻

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Absolutely. Everything is dependent on that.

[@alduline]

sick sweeps, keep them coming. more of this

[@Syphonix3]

Practicing all of these. Thank you so much professor.

[@ricardodaniel6378]

This channel is outrageously good. Thanks for the value!

[@x426x]

Tons of priceless information. Thank you

[@gettingoutthere.9981]

You're a great teacher. Thanks for the videos.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thank you, sir!

[@danash4643]

Eli. Stared training BJJ three months ago and had my first open matt sparing today. Was pretty nervous about getting smashed. But after studying your videos since the beginning together with training I managed to execute multiple submissions and did far better then I ever thought I could. Thanks bro 🙏

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

That makes me so happy to hear that. I appreciate you letting me know, and awesome that you could use any of what I showed. Best of luck in your training, my friend!

[@danash4643]

Your videos are having an impact on a small Mediterranean Island in Europe 👍

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

That’s incredible to hear! 🙏

[@jackthompson5863]

Very helpful. Thank you for making this available.

[@maximoestrada6611]

I've been training for a month and already know some move thank you sir.

[@tipshikes3682]

Great stuff very easy to follow some instructors are just easy to take to.

[@gregdaniels1559]

Excellent video and breakdown. You are one of the best!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thank you sir!

[@user-zh8di7ki6m]

I know this video is year old but I used to karate but I quit because of the students,they were always disrupting classes, so I’m learning a different style of “fighting” so I just want to say thank you for your channel may god bless you :)

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

I’m glad you’re having a better experience these days! Thanks for the comment and for watching.

[@yun-xuanang3464]

that escape from scarf hold O_O mindblown

[@John2corner]

This guys is a real good coach. Really appreciate you for sharing your knowledge. An awesome teaching! Being a great coach and being a world champ is completely different. Thank you again.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thank you!

[@jfurr9645]

Very helpful and great for review! You're saving my 2 stripe white belt butt.

[@juaan.olvera]

The same with me Jaja 🥋

[@ezell704]

Man I’m a two stripe white belt and my entire existence is death under side control. They love to go north south and go side to side on me too... 🤦🏻‍♂️ fml

[@777Thebear]

Love all your videos man. I literally just watch them on repeat.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

I appreciate that a lot

[@spartanlukas]

Excellent tactician, I really love this Sensei!

[@GUTOMOFFICIAL]

Revisiting this video after doing it in class. Now it makes sense!

[@abdelhamid6674]

Awesome videos as always. You gotta be one great teacher!

[@duckhunter4660]

I really appreciate your instruction. You do a very good job of helping me understand things. Thank you!!

[@farhadbasseghi]

You are an excellent teacher!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thank you very much!

[@jellybean11forty]

Great video! We've covered a few of these in class but as a newbie, it's nice to see these and all the variations.

[@sylvanusjoseph1140]

I admire your explanation and think its it beautiful to watch. Even though I am a traditionalist and think BJJ needs revamping in regards to facing multiple attackers, weapons defence etc, I think your videos and explanation are well explained and excellent. Thank You

[@brianshanahan3878]

Awesome videos and explanations!

[@Luckybjj614]

Very good teacher, always get god stuff from you.

[@djayj1220]

Thanks Eli. Great stuff. We really appreciate you sharing these vids!

[@detailman04]

Wow!! You men are very insightful with important escapes. Thank you from Phoenix, Arizona. :-)

[@alessandrooliveira1228]

Excellent positions, I’m begining in jiu jitsu at 38yo, your vids are helping me a lot! Thanks 👏🏾🥋

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

I appreciate you watching them and I’m happy they’re helping!

[@ligerangry6857]

I'm a beginner in jiu Jitsu and I'll save this practical video for future practices.... very helpful video , thank you very much!

[@WolfGhost97]

Wow. One of the best defenses I've seen around...

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thank you!

[@warriorstrength_]

im now a good grappler just because of you keep making these kinds of videos i wanna meet you in real and learn personally for sure

[@1deaver]

Tried most of these techniques on my own belt in my weight class and they work. Not so much on an experienced blue belt with 100lbs weight on me. Getting crushed. But im using my speed and getting closer. Your video definitely help, thank u for sharing. Love your channel, great content

[@bboystance514]

This is gold!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thanks man!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thanks!

[@pourindiesel]

Thanks for your excellent instruction Mr. Knight!

[@AngelMorales-qn8bf]

The title of the video startled me, I was like where tf did it go.

[@RoRoTheG]

Thank you for the time you take to make these videos. I truly appreciate it.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

I appreciate you watching them

[@monkeyonduty6152]

This tutorial is all i need for now! Thanks a lot 😊

[@bigreg47]

Thank u so much about this techniques. Your videos help me out a lot. Not 100% at first. But after doing the move again and again. This help me in sparring.

[@Rawr2Tank]

Great content. Clear and concise walkthroughs.

[@andrewcena]

Just came across this video, we were working on that transition out the backdoor in class shown around the 4:00 mark but I had a lot of trouble with it, the solo sequence you showed after really helps me understand it much better. Thank you!!

[@Red_ready317]

Great work explaining thanks I’m definitely trying this in my next class

[@tonyhiggins5745]

Great video Eli, you are truly a master. Good to see Jeremy also, what a magnificent beast. Great video guys

[@aaronmills5865]

these jeremy burd instructionals are amazing!

[@burdygurr]

Thanks Aaron Mills!!!

[@josephyoung3709]

I learned so much from you. Thank You

[@martialway100]

Good techniques, especially the knee on belly sweeps. Thank you for uploading all of your videos.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thank you for watching them!

[@SifuEli]

That first KOB escape is dope. Thanks for that one Eli.

[@SifuEli]

And the 2nd one.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thanks! Those help me a lot.

[@SifuEli]

All of your stuff is so on point. I really wish I could teach at that level.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thank you very much. I appreciate that.

[@alexbrasileiro8329]

Wow, your videos have a lot of knowledge and teaching. Congratulations on the way you deliver your teachings! Really awesome! 🤘

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Glad you like them!

[@mrrob5851]

I’m glad you mentioned the sit up. I do all the time. And thought I was just lucky. Glad it’s actually something you would teach someone. The headlock frame you showed. I’ll have to rewatch that. I’ve had my neck cranked on more than I like. That’s a good edition to escapes. Knee on belly I’m comfy with. But I’ll try to get the legs added in to get those sweeps. As always. Eli. You explain everything wonderfully. If you get lost in japan please let me know. Lol. Thanks sensei have a great morning.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

I appreciate you taking the time for such a kind and thoughtful comment. 🙏

[@mrrob5851]

Knight Jiu-Jitsu I haven’t made a video for KZbin yet.... But while your videos are short and sweet loaded with lots of information whether visual or auditory. I’m sure it takes a lot of time to prepare before the video. No offense m sure you know exactly what you telling us. No doubt. But with all things in life. And where you are in your BJJ travels. I’d like to think you still plan before each video. So in hind sight, I try to give the best comment I can to express the most I can. And I’m looking forward to catching you a virtual lesson.

[@eaglecuts5621]

Thank you, you're really good at explaining and I signed up to jiu jitsu and thanks to your videos I didnt do too bad. Thanks coach.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

That’s awesome to hear! Good luck with your training!

[@Hernoxx]

This is very useful for me to work on, thanks coach

[@marktribuani1196]

With my awful A.D.D. I love how quickly Eli speaks

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

And with my ADD it’s the only way I know how to present the info. 🙏

[@erickb7846]

Really appreciate the instruction. I don't download very many videos but this one was worth watching again. Great review thanks sir. Going to get a sweatshirt 🥋

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thanks so much! I appreciate that!

[@0023chef.d]

Thank you for the vid. im going to study and apply in my game

[@gregstokes7117]

Excellent video. Thanks Prof ! OSS !

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thank you for checking it out!

[@jasonbaty1501]

Wonderful explanation. Thanks so much for the detail.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

My pleasure. Thank you for watching!

[@jccharly2000]

Amazon vid professor!! Thank you!!

[@eliosilveira7743]

Thank you for this video , it did help me a lot.big hug from Portugal

[@ianjones935]

Dude, the sweep from knee in belly and the double leg from side control are MONEY. Thanks for the knowledge!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Glad you like it! Thank you for watching.

[@tylerhales2339]

Good stuff man , very helpful

[@tylerhales2339]

By the way I have a video request if your interested!

[@phx4closureman]

2:36 We learned this tonight in fundamentals class. We called it the *Greg* 😆😆 Took me a while to get the timing down on how he uses his right leg to trap the top guy's leg.

[@GoshGollie]

I just started bjj a week ago and obviously don't know what to do in any situation and it's literally mesmerizing seeing how obvious the answers are. I love and hate watching these videos because it's super useful knowledge and at the same time i feel like an idiot for just sitting there like a walnut while i could be working towards any of these advancing positions. 👍

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

It’s just all part of it. The answers look simple a lot of times when we are shown them, but coming up with them on our own is really difficult. Stick with it and it’ll only become more and more amazing for you.

[@beautyalaritz3310]

A walnut 😂

[@maddoxbromley6426]

Dont feel alone brother. I am right there with ya

[@nathansharples8172]

I feel you on that man I’ve been at it for about 4 training sessions and I get put in chokes almost instantly

[@GoshGollie]

​@nathansharples8172 3 years later man, it gets better brother. Everything becomes instinctua. You treat grown men like children without even trying. But there are always levels to it. I've learned so much in 3 years, but there will always be someone with 10 more years than you who treats you like a child too 😂😂😂😂 stay frosty brother

[@biffdanielson2820]

One of my go to bjj channels. Great stuff!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

🙏🙏🙏

[@Mr10isfreak]

Thank you for sharing this video! Very very very informative

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Always glad to help

[@Mr10isfreak]

Roll against a 250lb and used these moves

[@sp6990]

Great video. All my trouble areas. Thank you for sharing!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

My pleasure. Thank you for watching!

[@lando2802]

Pure golf man! Thank you!

[@ronque23]

Killer techniques man!!! I'll be watching at .25x speed to breakdown film.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thank you!

[@cunn1n6ham]

GOLD!!!!!!! Great instruction

[@gregghelfi3304]

Started 6 months ago and this is the main escape I drill. I start rolling on bottom side control. I always get stuck because, I cannot “shrimp” that good. You do it so smoothly. Thanks for the video!

[@robertgarsee8128]

Another great video bro!!!

[@alemoreno86]

Great escapes, i ll definitely try the one with knee on belly, which i find really difficult to escape

[@rockmeetspaper1166]

I have needed this. Thank you for the breakdown!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Excellent! Glad it could help!

[@송건대디]

I'm beginner,thanks to learn it from you
