[@The6thDimention]

white belt, tried this multiple times 100 percent successful rate. feel amazed when you haven't even practiced it and only go by fractions of memories. big thank you coach Brian! Love the way you teach!!

[@scottlee38]

Starting to think you show the best techniques out of any BJJ / Wrestling channel

[@TeachMeGrappling]

Thank you!

[@medidiop]

@@TeachMeGrappling I agree

[@marcelo.victor]

I'm from Brazil, i do BJJ but i'm learning too much from here and transfering it to my BJJ game!

[@kjomalley13]

💯 shit that actually works live and often.

[@ac2jones]

Yep

[@mraBJJ33]

I've been taught the major principles of this concept but you always give us small details that make it so much more effective. The way I learn this is so much more helpful for me, I need the particular details.

Wish I was able to train under coach Brian irl, I like his style of grappling.

[@mattc7208]

Coach Brian, your videos are amazing and it makes me happy to live in a world where youtube exists so I can absorb some of this knowledge. Thank you!!!

[@salahibrahim633]

Very nice yes very good puch away to the side you oppponent while he cant punch you. You are very good teacher thankyou

[@brysonz]

Best details on the most over looked closed guard sweep or back take. Thanks for posting!

[@RN-uo2vo]

This is the number one grappling video on youtube to the point that I couldn't even name who is number 2. Your videos are so educational, I almost feel like I have practiced them on the mats a few times after having watched you. Bravo sir!

[@chadlawrence2240]

Wow ...every now and then I find a game changer....this is it.

[@dpeshy6719]

Thank you, Coach!!! 👍👍👍A blast from the past!

Dude I realize you're a great wrestling coach, but your guard stuff is amazing. Please do more!

Oh my lord, slick as a buttered water slide

[@statmandemps1154]

Can’t wait to try this. I’ve been working on my ghost escape using your video and have hit it a bunch of times on bigger stronger guys, thank you

[@pricedownproductions9851]

Without a doubt this channel is the online resource that has given me the most techniques that I have actually hit in training. Keep up the good work Brian!

[@richardlancelot3829]

Don't know how I haven't seen this channel before. What an incredible amount of detail in the moves!

[@yogev1989]

100% the best grappling channel!!!

[@igipop14]

I really like this grip for control and attacks. I refer to it as reverse kimura grip. It is excellent for Baratoplata as you already have shown in previous videos. That armdrag is so simple from there, I love it.

[@homermtz]

binge watching your videos

[@damequish]

You rock coach Brian! I can tell you’re upping the quality and details of your post, and I’m looking forward to upping my contribution because your vids got real value. Grappling is so much fun and you project pure joy! Great work and thank you!

[@josephandrus2295]

Two on one is king. Thanks for this.

[@jaytheexplorer9016]

One of my favorites, thanks for the details. There's also a double-attack with a flower-sweep to mount, depending on their reaction. Works great in gi too. (Maybe even better, because you can get a strong sleeve or pistol grip instead of just a wrist.)

[@TeachMeGrappling]

😜 You know what’s up!!! 💪

[@MM-ho1rw]

Best channel. Hands down.

[@flanker909]

Hey coach, thanks! I usually put my foot on his hip and block him from retreating his arm whith my knee while doing the 2on1 arm drag.

[@barrett5229]

This is so good! Thanks for all the great content you share. Did you ever do the follow up video on if they drive the elbow to the floor?

[@shamoen]

great integration of wrestling and BJJ. Your details are precise and effective. Great channel!

[@ceozyamerz4778]

No joke, this works, i use to do this but not from viewing the videos

[@MrFreakinAwesome20]

awesome lesson . i always love the instruction !

[@chuckduncan9098]

Excellent fine points. Thank you.

[@jtmsl]

That arm trap seals the deal

[@Drain_Of_Incantation]

Nice, man. Will surely try and incorporate this in my next roll.

[@jimdgrousedogs]

This is a move I use on partners that are my size or smaller. When I try it on larger opponents I find it difficult to get the leverage needed to slide around to take the back. My larger partners will often trap my leg under their body or they may be able to resist being pulled over when I reach around their back.

[@TeachMeGrappling]

Right on. There is more in the series to come! Stay tuned and keep working on the details I show. We all can improve!

[@droneops3578]

youre killing it coach

[@TeachMeGrappling]

😜

[@ncooty]

@9:53+: Interesting that you go to the back. I'd be planning for the arm bar with a triangle as the back-up option, but maybe that's too obvious.

[@TeachMeGrappling]

Lots of good attacks... use the one that works for each situation. 🤙

[@samuraisteve2775]

Coach, watch Rickson again. He keeps his posture without putting his hands on his opponent. As it was explained to me years ago, his hands hover barely over his opponent. Only when they rise up do they run into his hands to block. He keeps his hands free to open the legs and does not commit them to his opponent’s body. 🙏

[@TeachMeGrappling]

I understand that. If the hand is removed the posture will be broken. It’s as simple as that. True posture is made with balance and hand positioning and winning the hand fight.

[@samuraisteve2775]

TeachMeGrappling Coach Brian Most Jits guys do teach to bring both collars together, hand on the hip, and all the stuff I know you already know. If the top man depends on his posts to maintain his posture and you remove them, then of course you are 100% correct. I have to use those posts, too, as I am not Master Rickson. As a perfect example: Watch the clip of Master Rickson from his new series he is putting out. The approximate minute long teaser video shows Rickson never committing his hands to his opponent’s body, hand fighting to break his opponent’s grips, never looking to attach to the bottom man with grips, maintain his posture, and use his hands to open the legs. Maybe I am explaining it terribly and my description is giving you the wrong visual image. Rickson does not post on the bottom man’s hip or hold the collars and post to keep the bottom man down. 🙏 Much respect. 🙏

[@samuraisteve2775]

Watch the basic guard pass teaser from his Self Defense unit. You will notice that he is not posting hard with his right hand, and that is lightly floats on the bottom man. Not until his left hand grabs the Gi pants does he out any downward pressure, which you will see. Watch how lightly that hand moves on the body. This was explained to me by Matt Thornton years ago as he received his Blue from Rickson. 🙏

[@TeachMeGrappling]

I understand. I guess what I’m trying to say is that when all is equal, in other words the force applied by the bottom man’s pull is countered by the top man’s center of gravity (pelvis forward, leaning back), the bottom man will attempt to sit up and reach for breaking posture. The top man now has to apply an equal resistance to stop it. This is where the hands come in and the hand fight. If the bottom man can successfully clear the hands from blocking, the posture will be controlled/broken. I’m well aware of the skills. In the real world, it’s a fight and there is never a perfect solution with all opponents. I’m not at all saying Rickson’s technique won’t work. I’m trying to say... there is a counter to a counter, and a counter to that counter.... etc. 🤙

I might but if the hand is still on my stomach it wouldn’t be a good choice.

[@lordsneed9418]

I hated closed guard until this, now I find I'm a lot stickier and I'm able to pull their arm to the side a lot of the time. I still usually don't manage to get around to the back though haha

[@mearnscmaa]

So good

[@chachogarsha6296]

Would you object to me putting the PG logo on my shorts? I watch, drill, refine, modify a lot of stuff I have seen in your channel. You are a coach I respect and wanted to ask permission. I have been doing this back take since high school (circa 2000), I love the way you teach it. I am going to have to jump on that patreon page if I get a couple of wins in the near future here. Thanks for everything!

[@NicholasJeffery]

Awesome stuff! I hope you don't me sharing this, I do about the same with the 2-on-1 grip, but after I switch grips(where your palm now faces your partner and your pushing their hand into them), I would take my hand that's holding the elbow, let go of the elbow, wrap it around their arm, as if I'm making a reverse kimura. That allows me to pin their elbow and at at the same time, I push their hand out at where my hips are. Then I switch my hips to that same side, I climb my legs up to their armpit as close as possible, and my arm that's holding their hand/wrist, I let go, grab their head, pull to keep their posture broken. From there, I go to the Williams guard by releasing my hand that's wrap around the arm(which is like a overhook at this point) and grab my leg that's on their back and putting the pressure to keep them down, and lock the grips like the way Sean Williams showed. Triangles, omoplatas, far-side armbar, kimuras, chokes are there. I think the Williams guard position is also good as it locks out one arm while the other arm can't hit back while you're able to dish out hammer fists/elbows maybe.

[@TeachMeGrappling]

[@hamaadhussain7665]

At around 6:05 talking about Ricksons' hip tilt. He actually doesn't use his hands in the technique. You can watch it here :- kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaHLqaqur69meas

[@TeachMeGrappling]

I’ve posted about this with others. If your hips are tilted as so, the bottom man can pull himself to you which means your hands will have to block otherwise he is coming up and your balance can be taken backwards and to the side like in a hip bump sweep. Hand fighting will be an integral part of the game. Winner of the hand fight will win the situation most of the time.

if he drops his elbow... baratoplata maybe?

Possibly! I have something better but if it’s your cup of tea go for it!

[@NicSupreme]

Tried it against heavier white belts. Zero percent success rate. Cannot control the arm

[@TeachMeGrappling]

You definitely need more practice if you can’t control a white belts arm.

[@NicSupreme]

@@TeachMeGrappling while true, i discovered that i was missing the detail to extent both arms to exert control. i rewatched your video a few times and tried the move the next day. it actually went so well that the guy was flat on his belly because he did not got to his knees in time. Up until now the success rate, with the what i hope correct technique is, is 100%.
