@@COREFightingSystem I think more defensive material would be brilliant. I'm definitely interested in defending 50/50 attacks (like the variations you get into that you mentioned) and 90/10 but also defending when attacks get chained into knee bars, ankle locks and footlocks. The most interesting part of this globetrotters video for me was defending when they go belly down, have now drilled that hip switch quite a bit! Absolutely ace 👌
Good point,I always look for various instructors to learn things from and often find great instructors that I have never heard of on youtube (many from watching BJJ Globetrotters) Sometimes its easy to get caught up in only watching top competitors and their instructionals which makes one miss the vast majority of material thats out there!
I’m looking for this guy competing I want to see him defending his feet anyone know a video I could watch. I would love never to fear heel hooks again. Sounds like he does not worry about his feet.
I may go to my first No Gi tournament with heel hooks and this video is calming my anxiety as I come from judo and BJJ when it was more what you call old school so my leg lock knowledge is not very big. Thanks for sharing.
Great details on dealing with someone going belly down at 24 mins in. That small tip of hip switching to get the wedge is amazing. As far as I know you're one of the few folks addressing what to do when someone goes belly down from the saddle position. Bravo!
Excellent instruction on basics of heelhook. Many thanks!!! After12 yrs being in BJJ and years in various other grapple arts I think this is the best, clearest instruction EVER.
I realize there are always counters and counters. However, when you hide the heel and go with the ballerina foot, are you not just putting it right into a straight ankle lock?
If you do it correctly it actually is quite hard to switch to a Staight Ankle, because the floor and / or the ribcage are in the way of the grip switch. However, if the opponent succeeds in switching to an Overwrap you would need to start booting right away. Good question! 👍🏻
@@COREFightingSystem sir, thank you for response. Armbar and triangle escape in gi will be very beneficial. As these two attacks come in chain like manner in the closed guard it will be very nice if we are taught how to defend the chain itself. Thank you
Any videos of these anti leglock system being used against some good leglock guys , say for example someone like Gordon Ryan?? Every BJJ technique could be countered/neutralized but to say "leg Locks don't work" is bit too much. It's like showing some triangle choke defense and then making a video with a title saying triangle choke doesn't work.
Well the point is that everyone uses this at the highest level. Craig, Gordon and pretty mich everyone who's is worth their money uses these things defensively all the time. Just watch leg lock exchanges at a high level and you'll see these things in action pretty much every match. If you succeed leg locks don't work. If you fail you get caught just like in every other exchange there is. It's just about timing. 'If you do this leg locks tend to not work most of the time unless you do something really stupid' would be a... actually would not be such a bad title 😂.
Obviously Dean! I mean come on….just grab the heel and pull as hard as you can! On a serious note: I hope your recovery is going well. Looking forward to see you back in Germany in the future.
Such a nerd! I love this style - he makes understanding the key element - gives me a chance to correct myself. I wanna be taught by this guy in the future :-)
Haha guilty I guess. Really glad you like the content. Would be a pleasure teaching you. Hope to see you at the camps or seminars. If you're ever in the area you're more than welcome to visit my academy as well.
I'm just a humble white belt so I'm sure I don't understand totally what's going on, but there are many techniques to unhide a hidden ankle. Here's one: th-cam.com/video/ENSkSZCJRDg/w-d-xo.html Also, as Danaher explains, something like 80%+ of the escapes from a heelhook come from the opposite leg. Therefore, before applying the final breaking mechanics, you must secure the 2nd leg. So to say leglocks don't work while having the 2nd leg free, is like saying a RNC doesn't work when you only have one artery blocked. A RNC requires you having both arteries blocked. It's not that it doesn't work, or it's easy to escape.
Hi Daryn, that's correct :). Yes, there are many way's to expose a heel, however there are just as many to hide them. It all comes down to angle and timing. Just giving up heel exposure in generell or voluntarily letting the secondary leg get controlled in Cross Ashi is a huge mistake though and good people just don't do that. In regards to the video you posted. This is a fairly simple way to get heel exposure, which is often taught to beginners and has some merit to it. It will typically not work that well versus opposition who knows how to hide the heel properly. That's one of the reasons why you don't see it very often when two good leg lockers are up against each other. No, you don't necessarily need the secondary leg before going for a break. There are pro's and con's to it and yes, there are many good ways to do so. It's also depends a little on the kind of entanglement we're talking about. Your analogy doesn't really fit well because of many reasons. One of them is the fact that one of the main fights in cross ashi is not giving your secondary leg to your opponent, which is among the things we're going over in this class. Danaher's defensive system consists of many things I taught in this class, which is pretty much among the most fundamental parts of heel hook defense. Many variations of the things I showed are actually part of his New Wave Submission Defense instructional if you want to check that out among many other great instructional's from the best leg lockers in the world. So don't take my word for it. You can also watch the things I showed work pretty consistently at the highest level of the spot, which is always a good marker. I hope that clarifies some things. Don't hesitate to ask further questions.
I've watched this 3 times now and eagerly await your first instructional 😂 Thank you very much sir 🙏
Awesome to hear Matthew! I’ll see what I can do! If you could choose, which topic would you want?

A good example on how you dont need big names to learn something in bjj.
Excellent class from a loving leglocker.
Glad you liked it 🤗
I care a lot on whether I can hear and understand the person probably more than what ibjjf titles they won

This is excellent by the way,easy to remember and its concept mixed with technique. Gonna go look for more of your material sir!

Coming back to this a year later - this made me understand leg locks 💯
Very glad to hear that I could help a bit!
I'm a brown belt and this guys is the best instructor I've ever listen too after 10 years of bjj
Thank you very much for the kind words!

@@The_TH-cam_Critic my pleasure. Let me know, if you have any more questions.
There’s a reason why the best in the world are hitting foot locks ….
Oh absolutely. They are highly effective.
Even Gordon admits that his leglock success comes from people not knowing how to escape properly. This system helps a lot.
@@SoulJiuJitsu glad you like it. Let me know how it works out for you.
Nice video
Once more a nice example of the high level of teaching at these globetrotter camps. Well done 👍🏻.

Nice!!!!!!

To everyone involved in the production of this video, many thanks, much appreciated.

well just check instructional from Raoul, It seems that he has his view on this subject :)
I haven’t seen it so I can’t say much about it :)
Fantastic instruction.
Thank you! 🙏🏻
I envy that ballerina feet of yours. I lack the flexibility
It’s definitely something you can work on to a certain extend. And yeah, I get cramps in the feet and calves too! 😂
Pinky Toe Position. What the heck is that?!
I guess he meant Ballerina Toe Position (plantarflexion of the foot).

So.... leglocks don’t work! Good thing we worked on my passing. Leglocks are for bums that are not manly enough to pass guard!
You could put it that way 😂

Actually you don’t need to block both arteries
Not a single leg lock, all heel hooks. Please change the title
Have you tested this again some Gordon Ryan or craig jones?
Both actually 😂
i got a lot out of this video, great coach imo, very concise.
Thanks a lot. Let me know how it works for you.
