[@robmichel7669]

Coach Tom, you've just changed my D'arce technique permanently. Going to mount giving more options is mind blowing. "Punishing good behaviour" Awesome!

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

Awesome to hear Rob! Happy D'arcing! (-: Coach Tom Davey

[@davideric8250]

Very different version of the choke. Interesting. One coach I have told me to just sprawl with hips on ground and new coach says to get on inside hip and triangle his legs. This version is very different. I dont know which one... The sprawl is how I learned it first

[@AliEliga1091]

​@@TheGrapplingAcademy can you show the escape from the D'arce choke and from mounted D'arce thank you

[@ssanders4196]

I started Jiu Jitsu this week. I watched this video Wednesday night and today I subbed someone with the Darce.. Thanks Professor Tom.

[@mcspud]

Follow up - I used this set up tonight and caught 2. Great stuff. The first time I failed - I basically missed the part at 2:00 where you walk back then shoot the arm through. Dont underestimate how much their initial underhook can shut you down. After I figured it out it worked perfectly.

[@bobberyank384]

First move I ever learned during my first visit to the gym. As my real first name is Darce the whole gym wanted to teach me that move!!!

[@PH-xw1ri]

Very, very, very well explained.

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

Thank you very very very much P H! (-: Coach Tom Davey

[@jaredharrison6778]

He's just an awesome instructor. I'd love to visit his school someday and get a class in.

[@thefullmonte1902]

Nicely explained. Especially the hip raise to get rid of the underhook. ☺

[@BreathEmpowerment]

That's usually my biggest problem with the darce, can't wait to try it like that!

[@stevestevens8646]

Prof Tom is the best on KZbin. Hands down

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

Thank you 🙏🥰

[@Pinpadprompts]

Love this instructional. The d'arce from half guard is such a sneaky choke. Everyone is so keen to grab that underhook if you give them the space.

[@richajandro]

Such an amazing explanation for this choke

[@aaronholland2771]

Appreciate that detail involving the hopping over their arm for the set up

[@nickraines3766]

Snoop Dog calls that The Dart. His brain cells are dying by the minute from all the Wakanda weed he’s smoking.

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

I believe the correct spelling is D-O double G (-: Coach Tom Davey

[@roywallace3832]

Maybe you're the one who's lost a few brain cells. Marijuana doesn't kill brain cells. Snoop Dogg's just crazy. Has nothing to do with "Wakanda weed".. Which, kinda sounds like you're being a bit racist.

[@cannabis8318]

Cannabinoids are neuroprotective!

[@harageilucid4352]

Coach Tom seems like a very kind and positive person, and keeps his channel very professional. Out of respect for him, I dont want to say what i really think of snoop dog. I will say that i dont care for him.

[@harageilucid4352]

Roy: snoop is the racist one, just look up his “dart” rant.

[@davecoultas5166]

Thanks, coach Tom for the explanation. As I am a smaller guy I have been having trouble getting my opponent's top arm in the right position, as a result, they are able to defend by creating space. Your tip for closing the gap is just what I have been looking for. Cheers

Interesting grip with the control too - thumb in the peace sign. Definitely giving that a try tonight

[@chazagameshd6705]

1:16 you can also keep the arm trapped and pull the other arm above his head then inverted triangle

[@ryanmcnally2227]

I’ve probably watched this video 20x over two years 😂

[@ryanmac2166]

Hey Tom - love this choke and love the detail about going to mount to finish, i didnt know that part but will def be utilizing it in the future. Thanks boss

[@TheGrapplingAcademy]

Awesome Ryan enjoy adding the mount finish to your D'arce game! Just try to keep them on their side when you mount! (-: Coach Tom Davey

[@ryanmac2166]

Will do. What other positions do you like to shoot for the darce or are the strongest positions from side control and turtle?

love it.

I just told them i got a secret down under and i am getting good at it 😉 oss
