Increase Your Success with Kimura from Side Control

  • The kimura from side control is one of my all time favorite submissions in BJJ. For whatever reason, I believe it's my short arms, I've always favored the kimura from side control as well as straight armlocks. I've been using the submission in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu successful since I was a white belt and still use it as a black belt in rolling and BJJ competitions.
    In this video I answer a problem one of our friends on UA-cam has. He says that he goes for them but only gets them maybe 5% of the time.
    So in this video I show a few tips and tricks I use to make the arm available for the kimura attack, and make my kimura more effective. I also go into detail about securing the double wrist lock which I believe is the most important thing when finishing a kimura from side control.
    If you training Brazilian Jiu jitsu and you're looking for a relatively safe submission, or you're looking for a submission from cross side. Then watch the video and give this technique a try.
    As always, I hope the video helps!

    This is nice. Personally I like going for kimura from my guard, usually after making my opponent worry about a guillotine

    I have been having trouble finishing the kimura from this position as well, and I think your detail (at 3:20) about keeping the elbow to the mat to prevent them from bringing the knee in to defend is exactly what I was missing. I've had a lot of success getting the kimura grip but then they defend in that way and I miss the finish.
    Continually amazed by the importance of small details in my jiu jitsu journey. Thank you for posting this video!

    Hey Chewy, I just watched a vid from Roger Gracie called 'Catch a class with Roger Gracie: the mount'. He shows something very similar to you but he chains it with the mount. I don't know if you already do this but I think I'm, gonna give it a try. I have been having trouble getting the kimura and maintaining this position although I do love it and will continue to try and figure it out.

  • @wjlafrance
    @wjlafrance 7 років тому

    Thanks, hopefully this helps me. I'm a 5-month white belt and I can hit Americanas fairly regularly but I often find myself holding the arm in the setup position and not sure where to take it for the kimura. Hopefully I can get someone to donate their rotator cuff to the cause of drilling this.

    • @Syphonix3
      @Syphonix3 5 років тому

      Shwagatha I am a white belt also and I weight 145lbs and find attacks from side control the safest bet. You work your ass off to get full mount and as a smaller guy it can be taken away in an instant. Side control fixes all of that.

    I caught my training partner with this today, but he grabbed his belt, and it took an epic series of rolls and reversals (never release the kimura lock!) before I got the tap. Is there an easier way to break the hand on belt grip, or a way to prevent it in the first place?

  • @dannyg4209
    @dannyg4209 7 років тому +2

    Tried this in class today. Guy gave me the "white belt hug" (we are both white belts) with his hands clasped together, so I put my arm over his head to do the first hip switch but I couldn't break his hug grip around my back. I got my feet around to shift my weight to my other hip but I couldn't rotate my torso to break his hug. I thought the movement of my body would force his hands apart but it didn't work out that way. Any tips on breaking the other guy's clasped hands in his "white belt hug" so I can fully rotate and isolate the arm?

    • @jacenbyrd1031
      @jacenbyrd1031 6 років тому +1

      I’d fake like I was attacking his neck with a bucket choke or other lapel choke. If he doesn’t honor it, take the choke. If he does then he’s released the grip and you can reset from there with the arm. It works for me when I want them to release the arm.

  • @tobedeleted2030
    @tobedeleted2030 6 років тому

    is there a way to do that without turning your back to your opponent, so scared of having back taken .. if someone is in side control and im on the bottom but on my side ,, i arm drag and expose their back and try to take it ... im a white belt but hey I did almost get a choke :P

  • @mark1983peace
    @mark1983peace 7 років тому +1

    Hi again chewy. I'm having problems opening the guard. I get posture first but when I try from my knees, I can't create enough space even when I arch my back. So I have to stand up. As soon as I post my foot they grab my ankle and threaten sweeps , I also have trouble keeping one of their arms controlled. Any tips would certainly help a lot. Thanks again mate.

    • @pedrovillelabjj3163
      @pedrovillelabjj3163 7 років тому

      don't get up, bring one knee to his tailbone, stretch your other leg all the way back. Hold his belt or upper pants to keep his hips from moving as you pin it to the floor, bring your hips back keeping his hips pinned on the floor so it doesn't moves with you, as you fill he is about to lose the closed guard make a sudden twist with your own hip to break his lock.
      If you must get up you must hold and control both sleeves so he can't grab your feet as you grind your elbows on his inner tie or hold one sleeve bringing your leg of the same side of the arm you have control and the other leg you bring it back away from free hand as you use your free hand to unhook his feet

    hey chewie, i often get the white belt hug when i am in full mount. I find it hard to break many times, especially when my opponent locks his hands tight. What is the best way to exploit that? Is kimura the answer there as well?

    • @Chewjitsu
      @Chewjitsu  5 років тому +1

      I'll do a video!But the short answer is look to forearm them in the neck to break the lock or adjust to attack the arms.

    Chew have you any trick to break their grips if they grab their belt or Gi before you can finish the Kimura submission? I am pretty good at locking these up but I ended up battling breaking their grips and waste alot of energy pushing and pulling. I may just need to get faster, but at 41, that's not so easy!

    • @Chewjitsu
      @Chewjitsu  7 років тому +2

      I do. I'll post a vid. But basically it's secure the lock. Stay tight but relax. Then pull with a quick burst of energy away from the strength of the grip. Moving against the grips weakest point. Again, I'll try and do a video that might be helpful

    • @Sambalifter
      @Sambalifter 7 років тому

      thanks Chew. I've pushed their fists locked onto their belt into the ground and pulled back hard as can be and some can still manage to stay locked up. I had thought about grabbing their hands instead of their wrists when locking up the Kimura. If one wraps all their fingers up then they can't grab, but I'm not sure if that is a bit of a douchebag of a move.

    • @danielcho3270
      @danielcho3270 6 років тому +1

      There is a beautiful move that one of the brown belts (former college level wrestler) showed us. Basically, sneak one of my legs outwards, then onto the opponent's back (the other leg should be next to the opponent's head already). This will cause me to go into a sitting position with both my legs on his back and on the back of his head. I then turn towards his head, this will allow me to use my entire hip and core strength to break his grip... then finish.

    • @bigmember5908
      @bigmember5908 6 років тому +1

      there are a couple tricks, actually there are dozens. The simplest I was shown, even tho I use it the least ironically, is to simply grab the hand instead of the wrist. once you pin the forearm to the mat you can go to the more traditional wrist grip and their hand will be too far to get into their belt. be careful not to grab the thumb or a few fingers separated from the rest, you really want the hand itself.

    Question: you talked about white belts grasping there hands together on your back while your in side control. Then you broke that and used it to set up for something else. Could you keep that arm which would be his right and dance/side step over he head and arm bar that arm? Or is that to much work?
