Class 03 - Front Choke Defenses (3 variations) | Guard Get-ups (1 & 2)

Class 03 - Front Choke Defenses (3 variations) | Guard Get-ups (1 & 2)

Assailants often attempt to strangle their victims during an assault. In this lesson, we teach you how to apply leverage to escape the three most commonly used Front Chokes. These techniques epitomize Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. The Guard Get-up is one of the most important physical techniques in the course. The ultimate goal for most sexual predators is to get inside their targets’ legs. Should you find yourself in this worst-case scenario, the Guard Get-up will enable you to remain calm, so you can identify the escape opportunity.

Class 14 - Double Ankle Sweep - Guard | Guillotine Choke (Guard Pull)

 

Double Ankle Sweep
Your most important task from the bottom of the guard is to avoid all knockout punches. Depending on what your opponent does from within your guard, there are many techniques you can use to reverse the position or win the fight. One situation in which your opponent is vulnerable for a sweep is when they stand up directly over you to throw punches from within the guard. The Double Ankle sweep is a premium example of how leverage and timing can overcome size and strength. In this lesson you will learn two variations of this powerful sweep.

Guillotine Choke (Guard Pull)
In a street fight, your opponent will most likely try to defeat you using one of two methods: 1) knock you out while standing, or 2) tackle you and then knock you out on the ground. You have already learned how to establish the clinch if they attempt to knock you out while standing. If instead, they try to tackle you, you should resort immediately to the Guillotine Choke. In this lesson you will learn the Basic Application first, and then you will learn the two variations that you can resort to in a street fight.

Class 04 - Inverted Wrist Releases (4 variations) | Guard Get-ups (3 & 4)

Class 04 - Inverted Wrist Releases (4 variations) | Guard Get-ups (3 & 4)

While the Standard Wrist Release is quick and effective, if he changes his grip, the escape technique will no longer work. In this lesson, we’ll teach you four Inverted Wrist Releases that can be relied upon anytime the Standard Variations fail, starting with the 1-on-1 variation. The greatest challenge when trapped beneath an attacker is to avoid panic and exhaustion. In this lesson, we teach you additional variations of this critically important technique to ensure your survival against an attacker trying to punch, pin, or choke you.

Class 15 - Headlock Escape 2 - Side Mount | Clinch (Conservative Opponent)

Class 15 - Headlock Escape 2 - Side Mount | Clinch (Conservative Opponent)

 

Headlock Escape 2 - Side Mount
Headlocks are one of the most common attacks in street fights. If you can anticipate the headlock before it happens, chances are you will be able to use Headlock Escape 1, the Frame Escape, to neutralize the threat. If you are caught by surprise, and don’t have enough time to use the first option, you can resort to the option number two - the Leg Hook Escape. In this lesson, you will learn the Standard Leg Hook escape along with two variations that you might need if the opponent resists.

Clinch (Conservative Opponent)
The goal in a fight is to avoid getting knocked out, establish the clinch, and get the fight to the ground where we can neutralize the opponent with greater efficiency. The easiest time to do this is when your opponent commits to attacking you aggressively. For this reason, it is best to keep the distance and wait for their attack if at all possible. In the event that your opponent approaches you conservatively during the fight, and you would like to close the distance, you can use the “surprise entry” method to establish the clinch.
