Thank you sor for all that you do for the grappling community. A lot of your catch wrestling, wrestling and Jiu-jitsu in no gi has increased my game tremendously. I purchased your master triangle series book to support you and the book is a goldmine. Mahalo nut loa.
i really hate knee-on-belly. but a simple escape that was taught to me was. you need to bridge en right after hip escape, and keep one hand on the knee and the other on his lower belly/hip
Appreciate the Marshal's advice on being mindful of separating your partner's AC joint... "It's not too painful to recover from... as long as you don't need surgery". Great videos.
Nice Neil. I was watching a video about catching this as your partner tries to frame across your throat but I don't think you would catch a good guy so easily without a better set up like you show. As you say, simple effective stuff gets forgotten and overlooked when people get attracted to more "impressive" looking techniques. I roll in a gi but I find that guys with a wrestling background give me trouble because they move at a faster pace, react more quickly than the rest of us or else make things happen the way you are showing here. I'll be trying this tonight if I get to the right spot.
Coach, thank you so much for these videos. I'm having a lot of fun implementing these to my game and it's really showing in my live rolls. I can't wait to try this tuck maneuver
2 months in BJJ and I'm tapping everyone I try this with. Freaken lovit. Now Neil should Just get his book on kindle so I can get to it , here in the middle of Africa where I'm at. Neil???
This is absolutely something that Neil taught/teaches with regularity, and I know because I regularly roll with people whose first coach was Neil and they all do this. You literally cannot every fight that leg with your outside hand without simultaneously shrimping downwards. You have you move - bridge, roll, etc. If you do only one motion here they will catch your arm every time and it's the worst.
Awesome techniques I've used the toe hold from half saddle. I also trained at Hayastan for about a year amazing . Gokor great teacher Karo and Manny were still highschool got to train with them a little never rolled though they were both beasts. Lol I was in my mid twenties
Hayabusa, could you shoot a video with Neil / ask him to tell us a little more about what he said concerning the Knee on belly in this video ? People on reddit were curious about that
Great video as always. Lot's of small details. Just one request. When you're showing old Catch wrestling techniques and maneuvers at least mention that they originate from Catch wrestling. Not only will it help to get the word out to the young guys out there who are not familiar with the art, but it also helps avoid the perception that you're just stealing old techniques without proper credits. Thank for all the great stuff you've put out there, and really appreciate your super detailed commentary on these techniques. Bless you.
why doesn't he just rotate to release the pressure . .the reason most people go to mount is because they want to cross to the other side so the guy on bottom can rotate to realive pressure
actually its better to go perpindicular to finish because they can use the pimp arm and get guard again...if you go for mount you can take the back...this is the best!!!
