Breaking Down the LESSON
In this Jiu Jitsu class from Sydney West Online, Luke Martin walks students through several techniques and variations, focusing on transitions from seated guard to sweeps, guard recovery, and leg attacks. Here’s a breakdown of the key techniques covered:
Seated Guard with Underhook Sweep:
The class begins with a seated guard scenario against a kneeling opponent.
Luke demonstrates securing inside foot control, followed by a collar tie to offset the opponent’s balance.
The key move is using an underhook to transfer the opponent's weight and sweep them over the shoulder by controlling their elbow.
Adapting to Opponent's Resistance:
If the opponent posts their leg to resist the sweep, Luke shows how to "scoop" underneath them and transition into an X-guard.
He explains the importance of controlling above and below the opponent's knee to maintain effective control and limit their mobility.
X-Guard and False X-Guard Transitions:
From the X-guard, Luke introduces various leg positions, including transitioning into a "false X-guard" for further control and sweeping options.
He emphasizes the versatility of these guards, using them to elevate the opponent, sweep, or transition into submissions or back control.
Leg Spin Entry and Passing:
If the opponent stands up or tries to resist, Luke demonstrates how to post on the opponent’s adductor, spin the leg, and either transition into a leg entanglement (ashi garami) or pass the guard.
He details how to use these movements to either secure a leg lock or control the opponent’s hips for more dominant positions.
Bear Trap Submission:
A unique submission option is introduced when the opponent fails to properly defend. This involves locking the opponent’s leg in a "bear trap" configuration, leading to a calf slicer or knee pressure submission.
Throughout the class, Luke emphasizes the importance of adaptability, showing how to modify your approach based on the opponent’s reactions. The techniques focus on fluid transitions, maintaining strong positional control, and maximizing efficiency in movement.
