In this lesson, we teach you how to apply leverage to escape the<br />three most commonly used Front Chokes. These techniques epitomize Gracie Jiu-Jitsu.<br />Technical Slices<br />1. Standard Variation<br />• Indicator: Indicator: Assailant uses both hands to strangle you while standing.<br />• Essential Detail: Step back with your strong side and duck under on the same side.<br />• Most Common Mistake: Allowing the head to hit the assailant’s arm on the duck under.<br />• Bad Guy Reminder: Squeeze gently during practice and allow your partner to decide on the squeeze intensity.<br />• Safety Tip: Flex your neck to protect the arteries.<br />• Drill Orders: 2 reps, reverse roles.<br />2. Wall Pin (Two-Handed) Variation<br />• Indicator: Assailant uses both hands to strangle and pin you against the wall.<br />• Essential Detail: Aligning your fingertips with the assailant’s fingertips.<br />• Most Common Mistake: A palm down grip on the selected finger instead of a palm up grip.<br />• Bad Guy Reminder: Apply minimal pressure to allow time for partner to learn the technique.<br />• Safety Tip: Apply pressure to the finger lock very slowly.<br />• Drill Orders: 2 reps, reverse roles.<br />3. Wall Pin (One-Handed) Variation<br />• Indicator: Assailant uses one hand to strangle and pin you against the wall.<br />• Essential Detail: Elbow must clear over the arm to avoid the arm being trapped by his body.<br />• Most Common Mistake: Relying on the arm instead of the full-body pivot.<br />• Bad Guy Reminder: Start by using minimal force, but occasionally simulate falling towards them for guillotine transition.<br />• Safety Tip: Be careful not elbow your partner in the face during the pivot.<br />• Drill Orders: 1 rep on each side, reverse roles.</p>
<p><strong><br />Guard Get-up (Standard | Super Lock) </strong>- Overview<br />The Guard Get-up is one of the most important physical techniques in the course. The ultimate goal for most sexual predators is to get<br />inside their targets’ legs. Should you find yourself in this worst-case scenario, the Guard Get-up will enable you to remain calm, so you<br />can identify the escape opportunity as soon as it presents itself.<br />Technical Slices<br />1. Shrimp Drill (Preparation Drill)<br />• Essential Detail: Post on one foot and the opposite shoulder.<br />• Most Common Mistake: Failure to turn sideways during shrimp motion.<br />• Drill Orders: 3-5 solo shrimps on each side, reverse roles.<br />2. Kick Drill (Preparation Drill)<br />• Essential Detail: Drive your entire body forward during each kick.<br />• Most Common Mistake: Kicking with your hips on the ground.<br />• Bad Guy Reminder: Verify correctness of your partner’s movement.<br />• Safety Tip: Bad guy should keep target hands away from their face to avoid injury.<br />• Drill Orders: 5-7 kicks while scooting back, reverse roles.<br />3. Ninja Get-up<br />• Essential Detail: Place both hands behind you and land in a strong base.<br />• Most Common Mistake: Landing with feet together.<br />• Drill Orders: 5-7 ninja get-ups, or until you feel comfortable with the movement.<br />4. Standard Variation<br />• Indicator: Assailant has taken you to the ground and is inside your legs (guard).<br />• Essential Detail: Establish effective hand wedges and scoot hips out.<br />• Most Common Mistake: Trying to insert foot on hip prior to Shrimp movement.<br />• Bad Guy Reminder: Make sure to keep pressure on your partner so they have a body to push against.<br />• Drill Orders: 2 reps, reverse roles.<br />5. False Surrender Variation<br />• Indicator: Assailant establishes full control of your hips, neutralizing your initial escape.<br />• Essential Detail: Use the “False Surrender” to feign compliance.<br />• Most Common Mistake: Surrendering verbally without surrendering physically.<br />• Bad Guy Reminder: Maintain full hip control until the surrender takes place.<br />• Drill Orders: Attempt standard get-up, fail, utilize false surrender, escape, reverse roles.<br />6. Fight Philosophy – Stranger 4 Phase Strategy (Phase 3 & 4 Focus)<br />• Phase 1: Identify an Unsuspecting Target<br />• Phase 2: Subdue and Isolate the Target<br />• Phase 3: Control and Exhaust the Target<br />• Use mount escapes, punch block series, and guard techniques to conserve energy in Phase 3.<br />• Phase 4: Execute the Assault<br />• Use the false surrender to open up escape opportunity during the transition to Phase 4.</p>
