2 Minute Jiu Jitsu Ep 29: Back Step Half Guard Pass

By Leave a Comment

When you’re fighting an opponent who’s playing half guard, stop them from establishing a strong underhook. If your opponent gets the underhook, they will be able to sweep and submit you.

While preventing your opponent from getting the underhook is always going to be the best option, if you lose the underhook battle, all is not lost, there are still some pass you can do.

Episode 29 of 2 Minute Jiu Jitsu covers the back step pass. You can use this technique anytime your opponent beats you in the underhook battle.

2 Minute Jiu Jitsu Ep 27: Belly Down Arm Bar From Mount

By Leave a Comment

One of the first BJJ techniques I learned was the spinning arm bar from the mount when someone pushes on your chest.

However, despite practising it a lot, I’ve NEVER been able to pull that arm bar off in training. I found my opponents had too much space and could escape, or I’d lose my balance as they bridged into me. Either way, I’d lose position and the submission.

Then I learned the belly down arm bar, and it fast became one of my favourite attacks from the Mount.

In episode 27 of 2 Minute Jiu Jitsu, you’ll learn how to attack with the Belly Down Arm Bar from the Mount.

2 Minute Jiu Jitsu Ep 26: The Babybolo

By Leave a Comment

The Babybolo is effectively a Berimbolo that doesn’t require you to invert. This makes the Babybolo an easy way for people to start to learn to invert and attack the back from guard. On top of that, the Babybolo teaches you several important elements in attacking the back, including using the hooks and controlling your opponent’s rotation.

Episode 26 of 2 Minute Jiu Jitsu covers the basic version of the Babybolo and how to transition to the back.

2 Minute Jiu Jitsu Ep 25: Kimura Trap Arm Bar

By Leave a Comment

While it may not look it but the Kimura Trap is a fantastic control position. The reason for this is the Kimura Trap allows you to control your partner’s ability to rotate, yet still allows you to move relatively freely.

There are numerous ways to set up the Kimura Trap, one of my favourites is from a dive roll through my opponent’s guard. This often catches them by surprise and can be very difficult to defend.

In Episode 25 of 2 Minute Jiu Jitsu, you’ll learn this dive roll pass to Kimura Trap plus how to finish with an arm bar.
