I laughed out loud when Bernardo said after Henry relieved some pressure ‘thanks so much Henry I appreciate it’ . Yes, I’m older and I love this position.
Henrys Jiu Jitsu is amazing, it’s on another level. I’ve taken 7-8 private lessons with Henry and all I can say is he will Blow Yer Mind. Ps I’ve felt Henrys side control pressure and it is Absolute Death. Great Course
Im 56 and only just started jujitsu. Im a sponge of information at the minute and cant learn quick enough. Content like this isnt too technical to learn but brilliant effectiveness.thanks
I tried this today in sparring with two different partners. Both struggled under the pressure even though I missed some important details from the video. Still got the americana on one of them. Great video, thanks for sharing.
Henry’s details add so much pressure from the side control. The way he pushes and pulls with his feet is fantastic! Biggest thing for me is keeping my weight to the same side of my legs just across his pec so I don’t get rolled.
Gut your oppents body into four quarters when you are in this position you wanna apply pressure to the top two quarters mainly the quarter closest to you it's called 3 point pressure used alot in judo I just recently started teaching judo at a bjj academy and they all talk about my pressure it's something taught in judo learned it back in the late 1980s
2-stripe white belt here. I got 2 taps this morning on different guys with this side control. Once with the choke on a 1-stripe white belt heavy weight and once with the Americana on a 3-stripe white belt light weight. Great stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Honestly, I use to teach this to my white belts in judo as this was a yellow belt hold. Its the little details that counts. Henry's ability to teach is at the highest level.
The details at 2:31 and “popping the elbow at 1:58 are crucial. Otherwise they just frame and have a super easy escape where they can reverse the position…. Don’t ask how i found that out…
Thank you Henry, I’ve been practicing this on our open mat rolls and it’s worked like a charm. The amount of times I’ve submitted people from this position using your different choices of submissions..👍👊🏾
Henry goes into a lot of detail of his experience on the Cleared Hot podcast from 2 years ago. Recently revisited that and it's amazing. Great instructor with so much knowledge!

I have bought a lot of courses from Henry on his personal website and other instructors here on bjj Fanatics and I have to say that he like so many instructors need to have follow up instructionals or a question and answer session because their first instructional leaves so many unanswered questions to make the first instructional practically useless. For example, there are guard retention instructionals by big name instructors where they will show you all their so called amazing techniques but when you go on the mat you get passed and smashed because these instructors leave a lot of details out and they don’t show what to do about the what if’s that will arise.
Kazure is a magical position if you know how to use it. Henry certainly does. If you've never played with kazure kesa gatame, this is a great place to start.
I just noticed that small detail on how he layed flat then kept the pressure to rolling him up tight like that and his side and ribs are over his chest and lungs while pulling his right arm up tighter wow big difference
I saw a very ancient description of a specific Jiu Jitsu style that i can’t recall which has Henry’s position with the hand against the head in multiple poses (side control, mount, etc). I never understand why. Perhaps Henry is reinventing these positions. PS. If you look closely, Henry’s hip is OFF the ground so ALL his weight is transferred into Bernardo. It triples the pressure on Bernardo. Very subtle.
I am new to Jiu Jitsu and after couple of months tried to emulate many teaching methods and Henry's was the one that is easy to understand and works really well. I am amazed how effective it is. Side control was the most successful move that I have learnt from Henry and it is becoming my signature move 🙂
I'm actually surprised that we haven't seen someone use this in an MMA fight. We see side control all the time, but Henry's side control looks really painful.
