Neil Melanson Team Practice

I just found this awesome series of videos highlighting Neil Melanson's Grappling teams practices- I am a huge fan of Neil's style and persona, I believe you guys will find these videos a great watch too; they are both inspirational and informative. If you are unfamiliar with Neil, find him in the "Tags" bar I have posted many of his other videos dealing with technique.Enjoy.

Closed Guard Sweep Low Hip Bump

This is a nice high percentage sweep from the closed guard that is really just a sneaky low profile Hip Bump sweep. The cool thing about this sweep is it is more effective as you progress in Jiu-Jitsu and battle tougher partners who are wise and do give you too many options.

Double Under Guard Pass Counters

Wow, tons of VERY usfull techniques in this one to counter the double under guard pass, similar to sweeps in other videos I've posted before from Marcello and Chris lytle, but I like some of these better I think. I Think this is a must see video!

Kyacey Uscola Front Headlock escape

Kyacey Uscola Sows a tricky counter to the Turtle(Front Head Lock) when your opponent is looking for an Anaconda. I've used this very successfully when sitting through or short dragging isn't an option and suggest you add it to your game, at the very least to add another trick to your bag.

BJJ Submissions: Armlock Series

I usually skip the shoulder lock and go straight to the second armbar after the failed armlock, but it's a nice option to have and a bit unexpected.

Catch As Catch Can: The "Surfboard" Submission

I know this Catch As Catch Can submission as a Surfboard. It's an old school lock, I like to get from the guard (see any of the Neil Melanson posts for some sweet set-ups for this technique from his "Irish Collar".) However you hit it, it has got to be one of the most embarrassing ways to be tapped!

Jiu-Jitsu: Scissor Sweep Counter

I love these simple, basic, effective and surprising techniques: they are so easy to work into your Jiu-Jitsu game and make an immediate impact-check it out.

Jiu-Jitsu: Estima Lock and Inside Heel-hook from 50/50 Guard

When it comes to Jiu-Jitsu or grappling in general, more technique is better, this Video shows a couple of different foot lock options from the 50/50 guard which maybe aren't too common. I personally use the Estima lock all the time and, although, it doesn't look like much, it's a match ender.

Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt KImura Counter Attack to The Back And Armbar

Some crazy high level Jiu-Jitsu right here; all of the techniques working together to escape a bad position take the back and finish is very impressive. The real trick is catching this live, and that requires a lot of mat time....so what are you waiting for!

Roy Dean Jiu-Jitsu: The Kimura

Roy Dean is back with another White to Black video, this time highlighting the Kimura; as expected it showcases exceptional Jiu-Jitsu. You'll want to watch this one a couple times, chances are you'll see at least one new application for this devastating submission.

Draculino: Sitting Up Butterfly Guard Pass

A Very effective pass of the sitting up butterfly guard, Draculino is a class act and an extremely technical instructor- so learn from the best!

Jiu-Jitsu Gi Choke (Modified Peruvian Necktie) The "Gerbi"

Here it is, an instructional on the "Gerbi" choke, a modified Peruvian necktie using the gi! The is always so much to learn; the saying is true "the deeper you go, the deeper it gets!" I posted Yarden Gerbi's match yesterday and there is already an instructional! Wow! You are gonna start seeing this everywhere soon and just like the No Gi Peruvian my guess is this is just the start: what other options are there from this position?

Over The Back Flying Armbar "Gongkwon Yusul"

This is a sick Flying armbar, similar to the Chaotic I posted a while back that you guys loved so much. I don't usually put any Hapkido techniques on but this one seems to fit. See if you can fit this into your Jiu-Jitsu game, (I know it can be down from a hip bump position with an across grip) although I suggest using mats;)
