3 BJJ chokes from a standing position
In this instructional video, we will delve into three highly effective Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) chokes that can be executed from a standing position. Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or a beginner looking to expand your repertoire, these techniques are essential for any BJJ arsenal.
The first choke we will explore is the classic Rear Naked Choke (RNC). This submission is a fundamental move in BJJ, known for its high success rate and efficiency. From a standing position, we will demonstrate how to transition to the RNC by utilizing a combination of grips, footwork, and body positioning. By maintaining control and swiftly adjusting your grip, you can secure the chokehold and force your opponent to submit or render them unconscious.
Moving on, we will focus on the Guillotine Choke, a versatile technique that can be executed from various positions. From a standing position, we will guide you through the proper setup and execution of the Guillotine Choke. By trapping your opponent’s head and applying the necessary leverage, you can effectively cut off their blood flow and air supply, forcing them to tap out or pass out. We will also discuss different variations of the Guillotine Choke, including the high elbow and arm-in guillotine, providing you with additional options to suit your style.
Lastly, we will demonstrate the Brabo Choke, also known as the D’Arce Choke. This technique is particularly effective in controlling and submitting your opponent from a standing position. By utilizing a combination of grips and body positioning, we will guide you through the steps to secure this powerful chokehold. The Brabo Choke can be executed with either the arm inside or outside your opponent’s arm, providing you with different options to adapt to various scenarios.
Throughout the video, we will emphasize the importance of proper technique, leverage, and timing. We will break down each move step by step, allowing you to understand the mechanics behind each chokehold. Additionally, we will provide valuable tips and insights, including common mistakes to avoid and ways to counter your opponent’s defenses.
Whether you are a competitor, a self-defense enthusiast, or simply passionate about BJJ, mastering these three chokes from a standing position will undoubtedly enhance your overall grappling game.
