Side Control Escape Series
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 лют 2025
- In this video I demonstrate a series of techniques designed to make your opponent posture and thus regain guard.
Each of these techniques individually isnt high percentage, but the threat of these moves can illicit a lot of responses from your opponent that can set up escapes.
Having the ability to escape from Side Control all starts with having correct body positioning including your hands being in a safe place.
It's important that these techniques fit well together against someone that likes to try and Cross Face and keep the hand by the hip. In the event that your opponent does get a Cross Face, controls with the hand over the body or grabs the pants near the knee, you will have to use a different set of escapes.
besides the hand positioning I talk about the centerline and how to control in Side Control. Understanding what the person on top is going to do and what they are thinking will help you better understand the escapes as a comprehensive system to regain guard or gain the outcome of the individual techniques.
At any point, if they resist and take pressure off of you, that is your opportunity to slide a knee in, belly down or turn away.
With that being said, the hand that is controlling the tricep is very important. Most people that practice this try to dominate that hand solely with their arm. There is a combination of moving the hips into your opponent's arm as well as pulling it into you that can be highly uncomfortable. If the person does not feel the need to move their hand from the floor by your hip then that means that your body positioning (specifically your hips) is off. Practice this until you get the pressure right.
Very nice Jeremy. You really clarified for me that getting an arm on the neck does not mean getting the cross face. Love the detail about rolling away before going for the reverse triangle. I am all about the reverse armbar.
I am subscribed to quite a few BJJ channels that all have basic or fancy moves. But I always come back to your channel because your teaching is top notch and in almost all of your videos you teach the most important thing: fundamentals.
So thank you for doing this and never stop! :)
I am glad that it helping your game!
Benedikt Lohmann BJJ is a puzzle game, when you learn to put the puzzle together, you will find value in every channel and their techniques. A bigger tool box will win you more matches.
That was outstanding, I absolutely hate the pressure of someone’s body on mine, your escape techniques are solid, thank you
outstanding teaching Professor Arel
One of the best Instructors I've ever seen. great techniques. Thanks for the videos.
Glad I found this. It's fixed a hole in my game. Great having multiple options too.
Subscribed! Love the clear & detailed instructions👍
I love your videos man. You’re amazing at explaining techniques and make it very enjoyable to listen to what you have to say. As a bjj player myself I love seeing people like you teach bjj
Very nice, I've been struggling with this type of side control. Thanks a lot!
Man your lessons are awsome. Can't wait to use these this Saturday.
Your vids are by far the best out there (at least for beginners). Awesome stuff, thanks.
nice info. Very detailed
Solid video! Good instruction. Thanks
There is a 5th option from side - Ghost escape. I am not sure if you consider that underhooking and coming out the back, but to me it is different. Thankyou again for the awesome videos, it is not just the videos, but you whole approach of having everything documented and online to share that i really appreciate.
There are another dozen side control escapes that I teach. This is just one series. I am familiar with the Ghost Escape that you are talking about and it is on my channel. I list it as the Under Arm Spin. You can find it here ua-cam.com/video/Ka4SG8MQpCg/v-deo.html

Tried 3rd option (trap & roll) today but without initiating push-back response by sliding hips away and coming back and was unsuccessful. You definitely can't muscle this, especially anyone with an average sense of balance and base. I ended up going to my move I use too much and owe you royalties for - Elbow Roll & Belt Grab. This works on 97% of all people I roll with regardless of belt.
Hello, what is on the boards on the wall? Do you have something like list of techniques and perfect system in your teaching process? I miss this aproach in my dojo a lot. Thank you
It is the kids curriculum. I have a curriculum that I use for the adults as well but there is not a board for it.
Very like
id move here to train with this guy :)
where is the school located?
Where are you located?
The problem I have with putting the hand on your forehead is that people seem to go to north south instead which seems harder to escape. Instead I've seen putting the close hand like a scoop on the top guys bicep (top arm). What's your opinion of this?
I highly recommend turning the palm out to scoop the bicep after it has made contact with your opponents bicep. I talk about avoiding reaching out to catch the bicep as you can "miss it" and you end up getting crossfaced. I agree with you and your assessment of North/South and you should try to avoid letting your opponent go there.
Wow this is good shit
so i know its a huge mistake i likely made but in side control sometimes i find their weight catches down on both my hands or shoulders preventing me from getting the forearm against their throat (framing) ... so im basically flattened out and can only maybe hip bump and they can base , or i could try to shrimp but really not much room to work with it seems, any ideas?
Remember that space is made on the way down from your hip bumping (bridging). The bridge does not have to be an explosive movement and if you bridge and hold it, then as you drop your hips you may find that it is easier to shrimp on the way down from the bridge rather than after your hips have already hit the floor. Basically, combine the two movements. If that doesnt work out, let me know and I'll try and help the best that I can.
What is the 4:50 ? You have no control of the arm with your legs.
and that is why he pulls his arm out.
So what if he puts his arm on the other side of your hip so you can't hip escape?
