The formats of these no-gi videos are so good. They're to the point and tightly edited while still having all the details you really need to understand the mechanics. I also really like that sound effect when the slow motion replay starts for some reason, seems to trigger my brain to pay more attention! Thanks for these.
Neil is awesome. Im a big guy (220 lbs) and a life long wrestler so his stuff is right up my alley. I always fought with the techniques that work for Gi and No gI. I am currently working his half guard cradle smashing technique into anaconda and guillotine. Neil I'm so glad to see these vids from one wrestler to another man its great!!!
Tony Cecchine showed this technique in his 90s video series "Catch wrestling". I've been using it ever since. Still works great on everyone. Especially bjj guys, since they're total novice when it comes to leg locks.
The best leg lockers in the world are BJJ guys, check your facts. Just because BJJ guys have different styles does not mean "they're total novice when it comes to leg locks."
@@Villanforsome Better than the specialist like sambist? I kind of doubt that. Bjj is choke heavy and catch wrestling is joint fuckery heavy. There's historical reasons for it too. Look into The channel DIDOS.
@@rye-bread5236 Then you're living under a rock and don't pay any attention to the meta scene. All the best leglock specialists are BJJ guys in the No-Gi submission events. Eddie Cummings leglocked Reily Bodycomb at Polaris and in Quintet, Team Polaris leglocked their way up against the Sambo team. As of now we see highly evolved leglock games and sequences being represented by BJJ guys. The distinction between BJJ and CACC's submissions is rather silly since it's like comparing BJJ's chokes and Aikido's wristlocks. DIDOS is not a reliable source for unbiased research. It's a pro CACC propaganda channel that mixes historical events with lies. The channel passes CACC off as a legit martial art despite the fact that CACC was primarily used for fixed matches. DIDOS seems to give the illusion of knowledge among it's viewers who are already driven by their anti-BJJ/Gracie confirmation bias.
@bandanavillain. You wrong. A small sect of Jiu-jitsu guys are doing leg locks (who btw. mostly come from wrestling backgrounds, like Rousimar Palhares, Dean Lister, Eddie Bravo, the whole DDS squad including the coach), a great majority aren't. And even that phenomenon is a new thing. I started grappling in the 90s. Back then and all the way to 2000s leg locks were universally considered a "dirty trick" in jiu jitsu circuits, not a real technique. It wasn't until pretty much 2010s and beyond when technically sound leg locks started to appear in jiu jitsu competitions. Perhaps you're too young to know this, kid.
Listen to this great man! I tried this setup on 1st promotion white belt when I was a promotionless white belt; it worked like a charm. BTW, it works in the gi too.
Great details! And I love a different method than just creating space with pushing on his abs and breaking the guard.. The knee squeeze is very much the same motion as passing a triangle, using your knee on the belly twist.. Thanks! Awesome stuff.
"If not, your training partners are going to learn it and you're going to feel like a fool" . I've never hit the subscribe button faster. :) Good videos!
As a white belt can in comp we can't use toe holds as submission till we are brown belts. Can we use the toe grab or rudder as a way to control your opponent when you are in the saddle position?
He is huge, very tall and heavy.. I like his game and it suits me up perfect and i am just shorter stocky guy with good base, ex. Judo. I am doing no-gi for a year or so, mostly with MMA people and some of his stuff i really like.. BJJ players still demolish me but MMA guys and wrestlers not so much and this kind of game works well as contra wretsling/MMA style..
Are the metaru rashguards supposed to be sheer in the shoulders like that? I just got one and to be honest I was disappointed for that exact reason. I kind of think that should be in the product description or shown in the pictures of the product. Especially when I'm spending $70 on a rash guard.
Hi Rich, sorry to hear about your disappointing experience with this rash guard. It depends on your size and the rash guard size. Bigger guys may notice that on the shoulders if they require a larger size. Majority that we have tested and seen in action don't have that problem. With Neil being such a beast, the material may stretch as with any compression. I passed your comment onto our design team but if you want to chat more please email us at customerservice@hayabusafightwear.com.
SHOULD DO FOOT TO THE FACE. I practice that foot to the nose and pin the guy down and also two feet face and push down and the guy stands right up and gets him and lastly squeeze the nose with the toes and push down can break his nose. In Asia I have seen this.Asians love to use skill. The feet are so powerful should be used more often but Americans are wussies afraid to be tough.This is a sport for those who want to win
I love this No-Gi series! Thank You so much and keep up the excellent work . . .
Glad you're liking them! More to come.
Hayabusa need more videos from neil! theyre the best

Cristal clear, beautiful anatomical details. Thank you

Would love to train with this guy
Don’t wanna be his uke though
So detailed. Great teacher!

Love the little details. Excellent instruction.
This guy is awesome. I use his stuff on the mat and it works

I'm a big fan of Neil hes super good and technical
Great instruction
nice video, if they don't open their guard... then gotta initiate guard opening threats?
This is good for my style, cheers
Excellent content! Thanks, Neil! Great video!👍🏻😎💪🏻
The extra bounces in saddle position, do they help with getting a better grip?
Love it !
I am guessing if I’m in a gi and my head is on their chest, they are grabbing my collar, right ?
Thx !
I've been doing the toe hold for 20years and nonetheless I never did it this way. Some interesting details. Will definitely add it to my training 👍
I love this kind of 'no risk , simple sub. Thanks !
ITS not no risk to your training partner !! You could easily destroy something on him
You are awesome, thank you ..and the videos are unbelievably HQ 👌
Great video
5:20 Lmao I feel bad for Neils training partners.
Yikes

Posição de ataque muito boa da guarda fechada! Vou tentar fazer amanhã 04/Jul/2019 no treino de Jiu-Jitsu sem Kimono.
Did it work
damn, looks effective. this video encourages me to start training no gi and leg locks. thanks Neil for sharing your expertise

선생님이 트레이닝 파트너를 '팡팡' 때릴 때 뭔가 재밌고 희열이 있다 ㅎㅎ thanks for the videos!!
MegaProfessor! Thank you!
The only guy's given it thumbs down, are the one's who have been put in toeholds and are limping.
the new rash guards look sharp!
Awsome vids !!! Love your channel !!! Subd and liked
amazing
How do you keep your balance and not get scissor swept, etc when you jump up into that half saddle position? Ive been trying it and keep getting swept
Is jiu jitsu even legal in Canada?
I Have his instructional DVDs.
I can use this. Not fancy but effective
Cool Stuff 👍🏼 attack‘s from inside the guard.
I am from Germany and i Start Bjj for 1,5 year … its a Long way to Black 😁
what if the guard doesy not open? any advice?
I have a question, where can I go learn from you to earn a black belt from you?
🔥🔥🔥
I felt the pain
Love those rashguards.
Should we do this in gi game or not?
The 36 dislikes are people that get footlocked a lot
nice
I want to be a catch wrestler i want that so bad but i am egyptian coach neil what should i do ?
Join a catch gym
Cool, very cool....now bjj interests me.
U ever start ?
Can you finish that move without the opponent rolling on his stomach ??
Me to my friend: Jiu Jitsu's not gay bro
Same friend walks in on me at 2:20...
dude i laughed hard at that hahaha so true
Bruh I'm screaming 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Got a little pop there. Sorry about that. No problem, see you in 3-6 months. Lol
I wonder if I could get Jessica Alba in full saddle?
He was trained by Gene LeBell, Gokor and Karl Parisian.
sweet
What size is Neil Melanson?
He is huge, very tall and heavy.. I like his game and it suits me up perfect and i am just shorter stocky guy with good base, ex. Judo. I am doing no-gi for a year or so, mostly with MMA people and some of his stuff i really like..

His 6,4,big guy,awesome instructor
Big guy, he's wearing an XL rash guard in this video.

You bring the heel to your body which sounds correct as most people dont do that, they do it wrong
Darn... Today is Wednesday... Imma try it anyway... 😅
this has to be the best basic Toe hold video on youtube, yet, 18 ignoramuses voted thumbs down.
8:00 If you don't learn my technique...someone else will and fuck you up with it. :3
gracias lo practicare con mi hermano aver si le duele
youtube should make a comment mandatory if you thumb down a video
People angry that this in not traditional guard passing I bet. Learned this as a young white belt, loved it then and still do.
butthurt white belts who's instructors told them Guard made them totally safe so they just assume this is trash....
camillako yeah, so we can clown those fools. But like Al pachino said in devil's advocate " gettum outta here!"
Maybe the thumbs down are for not wearing shorts over the spats.
Straight
Ouch!
"Lil pop there. Sorry about that buddy"
I wanna be high too Neil
Amazing work, just watch the fuck out you might hurt your buddy!
25 people were subbed by this! Lmao!
I fear you enough to subscribe and watch your next video.
Ronald Scott lol to that and your profile pic. 😁
I never understood why closed guard is considered a dominant position. When I'm in someone's closed guard, I just tickle them until they release.
Another gold tech
Looks terrible. My knee and ankle hurt just watching. I always tap early on these types of locks, if I’m ever caught
Someone tell this big donk that iron does not sharped iron.
all that toe grabbing is just gross.
Can you do a street example, this is not suitable for street! Great Vid however!
Toe holds arent really possible if someone is wearing shoes but you can still follow the rest of the movement and take the back instead.
