Dean Lister Straight Ankle Foot Lock from BJJ Library 

please everyone, be nice to Khetta about this, she is a great fighter with a great future

I love that it’s more like a private lesson/mini seminar than just an ankle lock video. You can really see how much Dean loves to share jiujitsu

Man, you can just hear how much experience Dean has. Everything he says, he gives you a reason and explains in full. Thanks so much for these videos Dean, I'm going to order your DVD!

I trained with Dean Lister in San Diego. Nice guy. I highly recommend training with him. He speaks fluent Spanish and Portuguese like I do.

we train arm bars a zillion times more than any leg/angle/foot locks. yet out of the few years of sparring, i have only been able to place maybe 4-5 arm bars and maybe 3 being successful, where I win with a foot/leg lock probably 20-30% of the time i spar.. people are well aware of the famous arm bar and just for that reason alone, it is hard as hell to sneak it in. And on a similar note, leg/ankle locks are not 'famous' or practiced often, so sneaking one in is much easier. People often think their legs are big and strong, so they arent afraid when you grab hold of it... oh boy are they wrong.

I always keep coming back to this tutorial to perfect my straight foot lock finish! Thanks Prof. Dean.

Went to a Dean Lister seminar when he was here in Australia. Super nice guy. He was an "open book" with his information and what he taught. I went away from that seminar having a lot of respect for him. Someone has to interview him and ask him what he thinks about the latest leg lock craze spreading like wildfire due to the success of the DDS guys'. Would love to hear his thoughts on this from the original leg lock Tsar himself!

There is so much quality information and detail in this video. Everything and more has been spoken of in this one vid.

We had Dean over 2 years ago, he showed us this footlock. I still use it with great effect.

It's not just the arms, it's not just the hips...it's all the things in the middle... this video just keeps getting better and better longer I train jiu jitsu.....thank you oss

Thanks for breaking it down as you did- a lot of the details you have gone over in seminars get fuzzy- this month's curriculum (At Alliance Eastlake) is all about legs and feet- so I immediately came to your channel to brush up on the basics!

The detail he teaches about foot placement around 5:30 regarding how you can set yourself up for a heelhook is something I only recently discovered and I'm a brown belt. I've always learned to leave the foot like he said until within the past year when another brown belt caught me in that self inflicted heel hook that he described. I consider the straight ankle lock one of my top 5, if not my number 1 sub, but just this year I learned I was making a big mistake from one of my training partners and now having that confirmed from Dean. Very good tip.

Dean has always been an amazing fighter. He has never lost sight of what Grappling is about.

Dean is amazing teacher. He breaks down little nuances that make huge difference. Ill get that guy tomorrow. I see what I was doing wrong now. Thanx a million

Dean does very in depth videos with a lot of information like the history, rules, dangers, ect. of the topic he is covering. He is a great teacher in that he doesn't skip things that a lot of teachers take for granted in knowing.

dean lister, the man, the legend.

Incredible details. Thank you OG Boogieman for this vid!

Dean!!! I love your videos bro! I learn a lot from on perfecting my techniques. Much love to you bro! Keep up the amazing teaching your doing!

You're an absolute beast, and deal with haters quite well. Good luck on Saturday!

Thanks for the tutorial, I'm trying to get better at my foot locks and saw a lot of things that will help me in this video!

nice video, I love the way he teaches.

Excellent detailed instruction. Good job Dean!

thanks for the details dean lister, much love

Such good stuff. Great teaching style as well. Thanks a lot Dean!

Dean Lister is my hero, my friend Justin from 10th planet Irvine turned me on to him. Fucking legend in the game.

Please spend two hours on this subject. That would be wonderful. And that poor girl. It was hilarious watching her trying to play off the pain of the first ankle lock hahaha. She was going to tap, then went scratch her head and then tapped. At least Dean was a nice guy and switched for her. I had a professor snap one on during a seminar. I thought my foot was about to pop off. Then he did it again! I wanted to cry hahaha.

Nice work! Great explanation!

Great in depth video. Best online

so much covered thanks!

awesome stuff. dean is the man

still relevant after 10 years! 😊

Absolute Legend . This video is still Gold. Wish I had invested in Tesla ,Amazon and Bitcoin right after watching this video.

RESPECT DEAN!

Great instruction, thanks!

Thank you Dean. The finer points make all the difference. I learned to use the bone closer to the wrist, with the other hand over the shin bone. I like your method better.

I had full on anxiety the whole time watching it that her leg would break, damn! Loved the video.

Excellent tutorial..

I love dead lister, his leg locks are the best in the business IMO, wish i could learn from him

Awesome instruction!

Thankyou dean, from australia

Awesome Dean!

Very thorough explanation

Good stuff, I'm trying tomorrow.

i wish i could like this more than once.

Thank you!

Thank you

aw man what a cool dude. super knowledgeable

thank you very nice one

Thanks bro.

yes I agree, that is why I a have trained In more styles thank on BJJ.... Good to see feedback from others

I like how you address when people defend the footlock by using the "pata viva" or live foot. When you defend by lifting your foot upwards. This is gold!!!!

Good video and technique. Do you have and tips on entry to the position? I only know a series starting with a standing opponent, sweeping them, falling into position, and going for the ankle look from there.

Good stuff!!!!!

Had a dream I needed to learn more leg/foot techniques. My dream brought me here.

Love this video!! Is there a drill for entry into the ankle lock?

Training and learning with this one move can give one an effective advantage in a real fight. too bad I checked this out just a little two late because I'm in N. County San Diego.

Legend

Huge Dean Lister fan. Keep kicking a s s and taking names

Dean is a god

Ty

Dean could you please make a video on Street self defense foot locks? I know that you will have variations when no rules apply. Thanks

Literally randomly dreamt of losing to a ankle lock in a friendly little fight with a dude. It didn't even hurt but the ref stopped us. Got me interested in learning how to prevent one haha. Weirdest dream ever

Great video, nice explanations, and yes she is pretty.

Dean, why do you keep your inside leg between her legs as opposed to wrapping your inside leg over the leg you are locking and then crossing your ankles. I find much more control with that position as well as going belly down highly effective with that leg set up

Any tips on how to maintain the foot of the hip? They always push it down and sit on top of it and then the submission is gone

the ashi garami position you would usually have the knees pinched to isolate their knee for a heelhook, so it's not as important for straight footlocks? Just wondering😊. I see that your inside leg is protected from the heelhook and hinders their ability to stand up the way that you do it

NORWAY!

With the 'door stop' (the other leg), what is to stop them from kicking their leg over and escaping the position?

Jesus Christ so much information.

Last year before I ever rolled a day in my life or taken a BJJ or grappling class, I was tapping people who had some training with straight ankle lock just from watching Dean Lister's videos.

I pray for you Jaun.

your a savage Dean

This is the most articulate explanation of the straight foot lock that I've ever seen. Completely idiot-proof.

Do you give seminars on the east coast? Do you have any coming up? If so, where are you going to be?

At 5:40.. is this IBJJF legal at black belt ?

Just curious, what's preventing her from grabbing the same hold on your foot that's on her hip?

have you ever used the wushi finger hold?

Can u do this to someone who tries to pull guard on you?

i did judo . i have a question . a straight footlock generates pain but but what kind of damage does? does it dislocate the ankle ? does it break the tendon??

Whoa.. checking out what the latest is with Dean Lister and I've found out it's troll season, lol. I am really curious to see jaun don's level haha. That'd be scary if anybody elite ADCC level had rage issues and took to facebook to setup matches/fights

What a great name. My son is named Odin, and he appreciates your jujitsu ;p

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Hva het hun? Vanskelig å forstå hva han kalte henne...

I would love to know Dean's thoughts on the bellying down of the straight ankle lock - seems to be a new trend..any thoughts?

10:30 face to fist size ratio 😅

Thinking it was a fire alarm I went into my sister's room twice like "yo did you hear that beep?" She must think I'm crazy.

Dean, how do you avoid and deal with the collar grab defense? I was thinking about grabbing my own collar, preventatively, like some judokas do, to block the strong hand. Then once locked up, cinch it up? P.S. That troll doesn't realize how scary the boogeyman is!

This is good information, but the background chatter was distracting.

Dean, why would you cut out your wiggle from the video?

cool

you know Chris Brennan, he has gym, Next Generation MMA,close to where I live

3:44 THATS WUS UP!!!! (Nate diaz voice)

She's a lioness.

he says an inch makes all the differance in the world when punching someone. Not if he were punching her is fist would het more then three quarters of her face lol.

If you're a cop and you have two guys trying to get somebody in cuffs, they'll give you their arms really quick if you grab their legs and put a leg lock on them

Good thing I’m both flexible and have a chewbacca ankle.

dean lister if you came from brazil (goiania city/goias state) visit us in our academy fernando boi jiu jitsu.... worl champion bjj - old school... we like a lot your videos

haha his fist is almost the same size as her head :D

I'm starting to think you're the real dean lister.
