Submission 101, we have a request of how to do throws from the knees. A lot of schools and grappling schools, the guys start like this on their knees. They start baffling from here. There is a couple of throws that I do all the time, that Dan will do all the time from a knee position, we are not doing standard throwing. So we're just going to show you a few of them.
One that I like to do is to come in, grab around the head, grab him here. What I'll do is I'll lean him, have feel on my partner but I will suddenly pull this arm down and I'm going to take his head and I'm going to pull it towards my shoulder, pulling him down, getting into side arm. You'd be surprised how often this works so again coming in. Again you're strong, or really going and then it'd be sudden jerk, and pull and now I get a side arm position.
Next one that I like doing is coming in here under so I get both hands underneath, I grab onto his head and I pull him down to shoot back like this. Once I do that, I'll immediately go to get his back. So, the side control is the turtle position from here. Then I can work different techniques coming in and getting my hooks in, going for armbars and doing that. I mean it's just to attack posture and how to go from there. Dan is going to show one called the big commit.
Here is pretty same kind of thing, you've got control here and here. Take control on head and point it down. I want to extend the way. I want to really push it so even if you're grabbing gi that's fine or whether you are just pushing on his shoulder. You got to pull his head at the same time. I'm going to kick this leg to this way. So he is coming right diagonally across. We're going to land perfectly in scarf , then you are right in that position. It's quite nice.
The key to this one is really commit, you have to really drive through to get your balance. So I am going to push first, just to balance start to go, as soon as I feel it, kick through all that energy is coming straight through me.
And the last one that I want to talk about is people were asking about while you're starting with your knees how do you go from there?
One of my tactics when we start grappling through the knees is this. So Dan and I start and I immediately go to my butt because really you're not that stable from up here. I can work a lot of different type of jiu-jitsu from here. I can play half guard game, or the rubber guard, I can do sweeps so I feel comfortable working from this position. It increases my skill because it is actually sometimes tougher to start here and working this type of game.
What I don't do when I'm grappling is do this, starting, I very rarely trying to just pull guard. I think it's a waste of time not because it's useless but just because I need to get a better attack position so I'll be working sweeps in next segment.
