    When deciding what I think are the most important escapes that people should learn early on in their training, I considered things positionally. The big 4 positions you’ll spend the most time in are mount, side control, guard and back mount. Being on the losing end of these sucks. Learning how to escape these positions is one of the most useful ways to spend your training time.
    In this video, I show what I consider to be the most useful and helpful escapes from these positions.
    • Upa Escape from Mount
    • Elbow Escape from Mount
    • Guard Replacement from Side Control
    • Back Mount Escape
    • Knee Cut Guard Pass
    I hope this video is helpful. Let me know your thoughts in the comments. Thank you all for watching!

    I understand that you are teaching principles of how human bodies can move and operate against each other in a certain type of combat scenarios, and there is much to be shown about such a complex topic. What seems strange to me however, is that there isn't a flood of fools criticizing you for "doing too many steps without the adversary doing anything" and "this will never work in a real fight against a non-cooperative adversary", as can be seen on in comment sections of some other taijutsu schools.

    • @KnightJiuJitsu

    It always used to be in Self-Defense that a flat leg went over the calf and knee to bridge and roll. Now it is always the foot step over and not the press of the back of the thigh on the leg! You always see now the step over!
    Also can you demonstrate some full back mount flattened out escape ideas! Some with cranks and rear chokes on!

    These are slightly different than what I am currently being taught as a beginner white belt. I intend to try them as an alternative when the others "don't work" when I have a chance. I really like that they are not gi grip dependent as using gi grips is still one of many things I am struggling to learn effectively.

      I appreciate the hell out of that. The only “real job” I’ve had besides teaching jiu-jitsu was graphic design. But I went to school for English and studied literature, writing and philosophy. My degree is in technical writing, so I had to learn about breaking down procedures for users of different programs and products. I guess that helps a lot.

  • @jaib5783
    @jaib5783 Рік тому +1

    Because of how fast you explain during the demonstration it's more difficult for me to see exactly how the maneuver should be executed to be properly effective. It would help some of us if you were to explain as you go through the movements like you do but then also do it a second time without the verbal cues and possibly have your opponent show more resistance so that we can see the fluidity of the escapes as it would be in a situation that is similar. I'm a visual learner more than audio so it makes more sense to me if I can see what I'm learning rather than to hear somebody tell me how to do something. Thank you.
