White Belt Curriculum - Submissions from Knee-on-belly
Time to hit the mats you submission wrestling sharks. As a review, this is an ongoing series that walks you through our school's white belt curriculum. This is intended as a look inside our club, demystification of the training for those looking to start, good start for people drinking from the BJJ fire-hose, filling in of the holes of advanced practitioners, and tips for instructors.
Today, we get into what the new folks have been jonesing for.....THE SUBMISSIONS! Knee on belly is a fantastic position to score point in tournaments, gain control over fights, or advance to mount. Hence, it can be a surprise place to catch a submission.
Personal observations:
- 2 types of arm bars is better than one! Options.
- Shaking the collar to get that grip works in the mount and other places as well.
- I LOVE to be thinking of advancing the position while threatening the submission.
- Falling to the side in that choke seems like giving up position if you don't have it sunk in, but is a quick tap if you do.
What's your favourite sub from Knee on Belly?
Your Excellency, the jujitsu Champ @zekepickleman. It's been centuries since we interacted.
It's so good to 'see you' (your post).
How have you been?
Haha Fada how have you been? I am willing to bet that the people you see replying to this post are more of a champion than I am but we all learn daily.
Man, wish i could someday learn this. I can't promise i won't be a trouble maker.
