- In this video we show the very first drill we use when learning how to shoot takedowns. We are simply getting in our wrestling stance, changing levels and dropping straight to a knee like we would for a single leg or double leg takedown. Also worth noting, we are NOT taking a penetration step.
The goal of the drill is to change levels, drop to a knee then stabilize ourselves in the “bone” position. That is where we have our head up, hips in and back straight.
Make sure you are in a good stance, lower levels, have your chest on your knee, then drop your knee to the tape. After your knee is on the tape, the foot of your trailing leg can move to the tape as well. It should be in line with the knee and place at a distance where you can push off of it to step up and return to your feet.

Nice shooting drill. Good video.
Thanks Matt!
Great philosophy. Great instruction.
Hey thanks Bad Wolf!
Not sure if you agree with me, but I feel like BJJ guys try to incorporate moves and techniques from other martial arts. Mainly take downs from Judo and/or wrestling. I think this is coming from the feeling of lacking other important skills of the fight which is the standup game. However, wrestlers drill this for so long and no matter how good you can be in shooting, you can't beat a wrestler in shooting. In a match starting standup, shooting against a wrestler will be blocked easily, so why bother?
Wow! One of the most interesting comments ever. Thank you my man. I agree 100% that folks practicing BJJ are starting to incorporate things from other arts like judo and wrestling. I also agree with you that it is because those things are lacking in BJJ.
I am so intrigued by your question about why bother practicing wrestling when a wrestler can stop your shots so easily. You have to understand, I myself didn’t really start wrestling a lot until I was close to 30 years old. I had this question in my head every day and I can tell you easily why you should bother. It’s because even if you don’t become the best wrestler in the world, you’ll be able to outwrestle everyone that hasn’t practiced as much as YOU. Are you ever going to be as good at BJJ as Marcelo Garcia, for example? Most likely not, but you train anyway, right? Same with the wrestling. You’re never going to regret spending that time.
One last thing, it will make you more physical and a better athlete that BJJ alone. There is just no question about it. I hope this helps you. Comment any other questions we can help you with! Thanks!
How are you going to get to bjj range if you can’t wrestle or bring people to the ground?
