Perfect Elbow Escape From Mount by Henry Akins

[@PeterJames143]

look how humble bernardo is, he never makes it about whether he can beat somebody else and he never feels his ego is getting stepped on when he is talking with any champion about the great skills of other world champions. Bernardo is a world champion black belt in self confidence. Thanks for great video.

[@chrisbaldwin3148]

I like how Henry made a point of distinguishing between a hip escape and the elbow escape. Awesome detail of pointing the toes down..

[@chaseshepherd7242]

I'm so glad there is information like this on the internet. This truly is the future and why BJJ has gotten so advanced over the past several years.

[@lordad]

Bernardos Intros are just too cute: Guys Bernado here 5 times World champion , 6 times Pan AM Gold Medalist , 5 time european Champion , Best Grappler of 2015 and BJJ Hall of Famer... today i am in hughe excitement because i gonna learn the ellbow escape together with you

[@Yodsanklai]

Mr. Akins is The Library of Wisdom.

[@dennis4600]

I really appreciate the turning the toes down insight. I've been struggling to learn this escape over the past year. Thanks for your help.

[@liamnicholas97]

This is my introduction to Henry Atkins teaching; I am blown away. I’m exited to learn more from him. I bet so many before me have stepped their game up levels beyond imagination from his clear cut approach and technical mastery. I love JJ man….

[@s216674]

Definitely train with him if you can. I was OK at closed guard before I attended a two day seminar of his, but after training with him, I went back and revamped my game to be structured around his system and layered all of what I was doing previously on top of his approach.

[@dondappa]

Henry’s videos are amazing. I can watch the same video 20 times and learn something new every time

[@VillageTechnologies]

Right? I'm a recently promoted four stripe white belt. My white belt colleagues are all drilling things which to me are still witchcraft (heel hooks, leg locks, all kinds of rolling, inverted entries) and I'm watching these videos of Akins explaining which way his toes are pointing and hand placement and I'm finding that the fundamentals approach is the more valuable of the two approaches.

[@MackTrainingAcademy]

The small details matter so much! Everyone talks about that. Like Bernardo said at 4:20, no body learns the why. I have found that understanding the why to techniques helps you to better understand, implement, and tweak them. Dont just put your hand in "x" spot. Know why you put it there vs somewhere else. It will change your game.

[@RemcoBakker548]

Thnx for this. The arm across is the gamechanger for me.

[@TIKOMIX]

Absolute gem.

[@jerryoutlaw3396]

Hail King Henry!! Bernardo thank you so much for having Henry on your channel. Bravo!!

[@petardimov82]

Thanks Bernardo and Henry for this useful tip!

[@ariguedalia2783]

i love this escape its the first escape i was taught from mount

[@iamcycle9014]

I really loved all your guests but some like Henry just have such a great way how to transfer/teached is amazing. It really shows,I like that even at your level and years doing jiu-jitsu..you still exhibit the love and curiosity of a white belt. OSS!!!

[@arshakh1]

Little details matter. Thank you so much.

[@Dreaming-11]

8:40 amazing detail, thanks a lot for bringing Henry

[@jamiewoodward4732]

I trained with henry akins as a white belt about 5+ years ago, when he came to Australia, top bloke , and amazing teacher. Great experience, and like many black belts, i beat him at ez 😅

[@ronchew391]

That was the hot tip I was looking for (turning ur toes to the ground) cuz sometimes my elbow escape wouldn’t work. 🙏 Thank you!!!! 😊

[@guilhermefacchini622]

super nice the way henry always bring us details that I neve thought

[@andrecheongavocadojudo2114]

Great detail indeed! Danaher always talks about "having your foot higher than your knee" so the knee can penetrate under the foot.

[@judescott658]

This theory is so easy it is mind blowingly awesome

[@ShaiTeller]

Amazing video

[@Chewbacca2000]

Brilliant!! Thanks Henry, so cool!!

[@Nenad-ICXC-Shuput-GFAMMA]

Toes to the ground golden detail

[@moyolenovo3914]

Great.

[@moisesalves3088]

O que eu mais amor é essa curiosidade do Bernardo Faria, e acreditem é uma curiosidade verdadeira, curiosidade essa que representa as nossas curiosidades. Top os seus vídeos

[@T_L_D]

Bernardo - your content is always awesome, and you have the greatest folks coming in to show technique. But the one issue that's been a thing for a good while now is the audio quality and levels. I think if you can actually nail that down, it'll really help a lot. Just a quick note, but keep up the great work.

[@MAGASAVVY]

I'm going to be doing the toes angled to floor tonight. Thanks ❤

[@Chris-km3ck]

I don't know if Henry can fight or not (I'm assuming he can) but he is a stellar teacher.

[@Kuba405]

Love it

[@johnmitchell4124]

07:23 great detail, many thanks, here's to more minutes surviving as a white belt!!

[@kennylovesbjj]

After learning from Henry, I can bridge everybody off from mount (incl. the head instructor), and nobody like to mount me anymore during a roll.

[@هذاأنا-ذ3ث]

Did you learn from Henry in person or through instructionals?

[@joeyservo]

Henry is the man, he's a really good instructor with some interesting techniques. I've taken 2 seminars with him over the past 10 years, highly recommended

[@NickAnastasi-s7r]

SNNNNEEEAKIN IN adorable

[@rollsgracie268]

It’s interesting I know all this effortlessly just by dancing with Marcelo Garcia sort of speak in this situation in a real tournament. Interesting scenes in micro details being a child of the universe in connecting with the genius or solo you use wings to fly straight to the source, but the details are interesting for some people necessary no doubt, depending on your abilities and your level

[@rollsgracie268]

Trying the toes completed to get the ground interesting. Already being done by me, but interesting to intellectualize the micro set my body intelligence took the elevator of ride with Marcello long ago.

[@bassi1973]

holy shit, toes down = game changer

[@rocker8692]

Can you still be good at jiu jitsu if you have small hands?But I'm flexible that might be good for jiu-jitsu

[@jiujitsustudent604]

Ask Jean Jacques Machado

[@TrickyyRicky]

Pretty much exclusively do knee elbow escapes very successfully but I’m about to even more so

[@ShaneGoodson]

This is great and all but when I asked about mount escapes on r/bjj all the blue belts there told me that only white belts get mounted.

[@UnskilledGrappler]

As the world’s worst brown belt, I can assure you that is not correct.

[@timothycarey3883]

I teach this, i call it flat leg escape, i tell them imagine your knee is a spatula scrapping something stuck to a frying pan.

[@UnskilledGrappler]

Only at Timothy Carey’s BJJ and Culinary Arts Institute.

[@timothycarey3883]

@@UnskilledGrappler lol

[@rollsgracie268]

Will you just watch Marcelo Garcia when he’s mounted by a big guy that’s good in the finals of the tournament and how quick and easy he gets out and you copy it and you take an elevator ride through everything that is being said, and more hence the genius of Jiujitsu So I bumped into Marcello when I was younger I would’ve been a champion no doubt such is life everything has to happen no complaints onward and upward. Not all music great but he’s a great person and a great teacher and loves students in the 90s in LA superficiality ran rented , you need to just dump in theJon Joque Machado, Renzo Gracie will you get stuck in a vacuum who is the teacher that loves but doesn’t know quite as much is this beautiful rolls Gracie enlighten to good men that didn’t have to wait until the cat was out of the bag to pretend that they were good men or become good men. They naturally cared about their students naturally knew what they were doing. God bless them I didn’t bump into them, but God bless them anyway there one of me.

[@rollsgracie268]

It shows how intellectuality is not as important as people think it is body intelligence is way more important. Example your great great great grandfather’s nose is sitting on your face, but you don’t even know it.

[@metemontana3603]

Okay guys 😅

[@vw5233]

3:56

[@rollsgracie268]

If you flow with Marcelo, you should pass the intellectuality the tediousness, and go right to the source if you have the capability to pick it up transitions the micro
