Perhaps the most powerful submission technique there is in Jiu-Jitsu is the Triangle Choke. It’s no wonder why it is the favorite of so many (me included). It is a great equalizer vs a larger, stronger opponent. When we saw Royce Gracie catch Dan Severn in this move in 1994, even people who knew what Sankaku Jime was were shocked and impressed by this move.

This is a bit of a longer video, but I wanted to focus on not just the mechanics of this technique, but the versatility of it from a wide variety of positions and setups. Far from a comprehensive list of every way to hit the triangle, this video should have something for all levels of practitioner.

The worst person to go against in jiujitsu is a grappler that can blend their passing. They can go high low be light and be heavy. It is extremely frustrating.

This pass has been working for me lately. I usually pass up high but I will mix in this pressure pass when I get slowed down.

– Chad Hardy

Guard recovery is a very important skillset to have in BJJ! Without it you will find yourself constantly mounted or in side control.

No one likes that. (If you do, you are a sicko! 😂)

In this video you will learn 3 BJJ guard drills on how to stop your guard from getting passed.

These 3 steps will show you leg drag defense, Toreando defense and how to control the open guard.

In this video, filmed at our 2018 Affiliate Camp, Jean Jacques addresses a female student who was having difficulty controlling and passing the guard against a much larger male opponent.

This video exemplifies the concept of utilizing leverage and connection as a means of controlling a much larger adversary.

Side control is such a trial for white belts to learn how to escape. I spent my entire first white belt tournament stuck in side control.

Here is a great way to get the heck out of that miserable place!

The berimbolo is widely considered to be one of the most difficult maneuvers in BJJ to pull off. However once mastered it is a powerful technique that can shock and mystify a wary opponent.

“The Berimbolo is the name created by Andre Galvao as a reference to a specific movement, this movement was created by Brazilian Jiu Jitsu competitors having derived from the De La Riva Guard. This grappling position requires the guard player to spin upside-down in an attempt to disrupt the balance of his opponent. This spin, will cause the guard player to either get a sweep (reverse the position) – which is usually called an helicóptero, or take control of his opponent’s back, which is a berimbolo. This position is one of the most popular trends of BJJ since its revival in the late 2000s decade, a revival led by Rafael Mendes and perpetuated by many other fighters such as Ary Farias, Joao and Paulo Miyao and many, many others, especially in the lower weight classes of the sport.” – BJJ Heroes

The following two videos give a great explanation on how to pull it off and after that Marcelo Garcia shows how to shut the berimbolo down!

 

…and the counter!
