I'm brand new to BJJ, and this is no joke, but getting on this guy's mailing list and subscribing to his channel is the most helpful thing I've done to help me get off on the best possible start.
Dear Stephan,I just wanted to say:THANK YOU!!! I did this in class and got it on my first try,went realy smooth! I even dragd his knee close to me using my knees... man you ROCK!
I love that added technique! I've realize I've done this a few times, but not until I see someone recognize it as a technique. Just knowing this will keep it in my mind. Thanks Stephan!
Excellent as always. Kesting is an amazing teacher. I would love to study under him. He doesn't get all convoluted with his explanations and gets straight to the point. So far, all of his content I have reviewed is as solid as any available and often times far superior to others
Just drilled this a couple of weeks ago. In practice, it seems like it mostly serves to create some space to get the underhook, since usually people post out to avoid the sweep. And who doesn't want an underhook, right? :) Great stuff -- thanks!
Very solid technique, especially with the added leg movement. The judo style "big wheel" motion with the hands on the ground is a great way to break their balance and finish the sweep. Thanks for the vid!
Thanx so much Stephan I kept getting caught in half guard and found myself using the leg hook to prevent a bad position from getting worse by not letting them pass but didn't have much else I could do from there besides that. Can't wait to try the clothesline one because as you said if it doesn't work I can still use it to get the underhook and then take the back.
This is another of a gajillion terrific tips you have in your videos Stephan and I'm going to use this idea for the Kamikaze Sweep asap. I've used a version of this tech already but the details you and Ryangle supply are of the first importance. Thanks guys.
since watching this video months ago, i've sweeped so many of my fellow white belt practitioners countless times!!! awesome technique that works really well! im yet to try this on someone more experienced, but i'm sure if done properly, it will catch some of them by surprise, thanks a lot!!!
@jamiegee123 you push the face with the bizeps. It should hurt less than it is annoying to your opponent and forces him to move his face sidewards. You need to push the face since thats the weakest point to attack with your right hand as seen in the video. Pushing the neck will not move the body of the opponent sidewards because the neck has more power to ressist your right hand push.
@akums47 depends on what level your talking about. Its much longer than just learning one martial art because, as im sure you know, mma ( mixed martial arts ) uses various styles....the most common of which are boxing, kick boxing, wrestling, and brazilian jiu jitsu as well as others. So as i said above it depends on what you consider " learn" to mean. You learn some math in grade school and you can say you learned how to do math but you can keeping learning more.
@iLuvAniime My brother-in-law is a drill instructor at Parris Island. MCMAP (Marine Corp Martial Arts Program), includes many Brazilian Jiu-jitsu techniques and Judo throws. Hate to break it to you, but Marines grapple.
I like this sweep cuz you don't have to be up on your side to do it. I get stuck here a lot with guys that have a good amount of weight on me. The thing that makes this sweep good is that the bigger they are the easier it is :)
@gboyhitdaspot Why wouldn't it? Most nogi techniques are applicable to both. Gi techniques don't always work across both though as your grips and control techniques are different.
why does no one ever sweep to the side that you have the leg hooked on. I mean, you already have the leg neutralized from bridging, and you can easily either a) grab the arm on the same side, or b) half the time they already do the work for you by putting their arm behind your head.
@akums47 To fight in an actual mixed martial arts scenario I.E something like UFC it would take roughly 4 years to even truly consider it, but breaking down different components of it you could probably get away with doing it in half the time. I.E kickboxing or Jiu Jitsu, at least as far to my knowledge correct me if i am wrong someone.
+SuperPurgatorio well, it's Sport bjj. this particular sweep can't be used against multiple opponents. The first thing you should know about fighting 2 opponents is you don't want to fall to the ground...

You're an awesome teacher! About 15-20 years ago I bought some instructional DVDs from you. Can't believe you have so much content on youtube now.
Ey man. I´ve seen a lot of your videos, they´ve helped a lot. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, you are an amazing teacher.
Dear Stephan,I just wanted to say:THANK YOU!!!

probably the single most effective half-guard sweep on youtube. Thanks!
Very solid technique, especially with the added leg movement. The judo style "big wheel" motion with the hands on the ground is a great way to break their balance and finish the sweep. Thanks for the vid!

People usually post out but I always use it to get out of a bad position and regain my half guard! Def an important sweep to have in your arsenal!!!

This is a great tutorial. The secret detail did not disappointment

cool sweep. good to know if your opponent bases with the arm the same side they're being swept to, you can regain a better position.
this is the kind of technique that I like, simple, esy to learn and effective, thank you
FINALLY, a sweep i already knew...a milestone
great sweep, so simple yet so effective!
Great technique. Thanks a lot from Brazilian Fans. Reading you book. It´s very good.
Liked and subscribed. This looks totally doable and high probability. Thanks for sharing your skills and knowledge.
Great detail on getting the knee closer!
Awesome details, Stephan! Thanks a lot
wow this is an awesome simple sweep
Stephan is such a nice guy you can tell
this was extremely useful, gonna use it tonight in training!
cheers, Stephan, keep up the good shit, as always!

not too difficult and very applicable, thanks!
Stephan can you show Minotouro Nogueira sweep vs Tim Sylvia?Minotouro used it in a lot of fights!! THANKS GREAT VID!!!

hip rotation is money! thanks a bunch
You sir are the man for this!
Excellent knowledge shared. Thank you.
Same here, JEdi Powered. Great Detail there, Thank you!
Thanks Stephan!
Love your breakdowns very informative, Thanks keep it up!

THANK YOU.... SO MUCH STEPHEN 🙇♂️
Very Nice and practical.
Awsome breakdown, thank you!

Really good advice
great detail
Thank you Master Jedi.
I love this guy.
@gboyhitdaspot Why wouldn't it? Most nogi techniques are applicable to both. Gi techniques don't always work across both though as your grips and control techniques are different.
this looks nice im gunna try this next class if i can :D
this truly is amazing
Great video. Thank you.
hi prof stephan i was wondering if you are still teaching in greater van? i just moved here and would love a chance to learn from you
Cool sweep.
nice sweep
you ARE using the force!
Very interesting, thank you
Question, is that move a sweep or reversal. Because both fighters remain in the same position, that makes it a reversal. right!?
Stephan hit higher on the head at his sweep. Is that important for leverage in the sweep?
Thank you
" it's not the force , i hate to break it to you . I don't want emails from potential Jedi's . " I love this guy . :)
wow, very nice video there, and i liked the jedi Force lol, great video
Very good
one question is it allowed to hit your opponent with your bicep?
Thanks great video
thank you, thank you ver much
Thanks for theach
awesome expertizing
You have to trap his far tibia with your feet and bridge towars your left. It is in the Pedro Sauer curriculum.

nice!!
nice
like this a lot !!!
I dont want emails from potential Jedis! haha nice sweep!
its magic
Awesome! Cheers~! :3
Nice nice
Whats on your mind chief?
Like times a thousand!!
How can this work against multiple opponents?!
+SuperPurgatorio Well, it can't... Another opponent will kick your head off while you pinch your knees together...
So BJJ is uneffective.
+SuperPurgatorio well, it's Sport bjj. this particular sweep can't be used against multiple opponents. The first thing you should know about fighting 2 opponents is you don't want to fall to the ground...
Well, BJJ is uneffective ground ball licking
+SuperPurgatorio Weak troll.
Way to use adjectives in the title! :P
Thanks, but I'm a jedi.
Activating Sharingan.
This is MMA based Gracie Jiu Jitsu though... hence the no gi...

haha i´m gonna use ´´the force´´ xP
@iLuvAniime Also,anime.
@iLuvAniime nice troll attempt but everyone knows the marines and all US forces learn bjj
dat lisp
It sounds like his tongue is made of paper!
I hope you don't train
