This is pure gold. I go to Gracie Barra. I did a guest workout at 10th Planet and had no clue what to do. I went back to 10th Planet for another guest workout and used this technique! Worked every time!!!
Wow.. just what I needed to know.... Having a hard time as a White level breaking the guard lol. Good one. This is the first guard pass I have learned from the ground.
Thank you so much! I am one of those who trained in the gi for a very long time. While passing guard is not exactly my specialty, I could get it done. Going to no gi I have felt completely lost. I will work this basic and simple opening strategy until I am successful. Thanks again for the great instruction. Much appreciated.
I trained in the gi for a bit and got decent at opening the guard, but as soon as I started doing no gi I couldn’t open the guard at all. Great video, thanks.
Yup mostly gi here nogi wednesday and still learning the basics.. I do prefer no Gi for fludity I can sweep better and move better.. appreciate the tips thanks
Great video, you covered how to defend the collar tie, the wrist control, how to control their wrists, how to get out of the overhook, WOW and thank you! You're a great teacher!
Thank you Matt! Can't wait to try this in class tonight! My Core is one of my strongest assets esp fighting bigger opponents but was using my arms more, def going to re-watch and remember.
Just curious. What is your thoughts on the "hip to the mat/knee in butt" guard break. I know it's a fundamental/basic technique but, i rarely get it to work without having my posture broken, no matter how far i posture back. Thank you.
I have been using this for a little while now and have found that when I turn the knee into the hip my training partner follows my hips with theirs and i lose that twist. How to counter/prevent this?
It should really work , but an extremely important point to note there are the positions of the feet, depending on which one is on top or which one is on the bottom you must make your exit to different sides, it was funny to notice how in the second demonstration the other guy switches the foot positions to make it work, it's a great technique to get out of guard but if you don't pay attention to this detail the chance of it working decreases drastically
Im a little confused. In the first demo, he bends the knee into the hip to twist the guys legs making the guard easier to break. In the second demo he leans away from the hips, with his knee pointed away 90 degrees. Which is it? Both work?
#1 grab armpits , rock forward then stand, push leg out of way #2 control both labels with 1 arm , control arm with other, step up on arm side you are controlling #3 3:08 control the biceps/armpits and come up and spin around
I think it would be better / efficient if you kept both of your arms on his wrist and then lean on left, and then just place straight arm on his thigh and pass the guard. Because that way he would be less aware that you will push his thigh and also it would be a slightly faster.
Have been trying this for weeks and I just can't seem to pin opponent arm long enough to advance. In the handfight meta, they often raise their 2on1'd hand to their head level while pulling me with their legs to compromise my posture. When i can 2on1 pin opp arm long enough that I can raise to a knee, transition the grip to 1on1 so my other hand can work on opp legs, I can *never* control that arm long enough for me to deal with opp legs. Cannot figure out what I'm doing wrong and I'm close to abandoning this technique.
defcon even if you can’t pin the arm, pushing the leg can still break the guard open. If you get a small opening in the guard you can also slide your knee up into the gap. Or try pinning their arm to the mat instead of their stomachs
@@aplus1080 gordon ryan doesn't use this pass. He shows a different one in his guard passing instructional. He references to this pass and claims its inefficient.
so here's whats going to happen, I am going to try this technique with palms on the ribs and extending the elbows... i find myself swept 99.9% of the time while in someone's closed guard, so on the side you have arm trapped(double gripped), step up on that side, hips forward and head back... should i fail to execute the closed guard break I will need your emergency intervention
Can somebody help me out. I do this the way Pr. Matt showed however once the legs pop open my opponent always get the knee shield in before I can reverse knee slice. Is there a way to avoid that or I just have to pass the knee shield then?
I've tried this on everyone at my gym and I'm yet to be unsuccessful. Great video thanks Matt.
Nice
Bout to try this tomorrow
I’ve tried on everyone at my school and it has yet to succeed
I tried this on my neighbour and they filed a police report, thanks coach!
Sent from Alabama State Penitentiary
Breaking that guard with your core is KEY!
No bend in the arms. Got it.
Thank you Sir!

Why my man’s grappling partner look Dustin “The Discount” Poirier 😂😂 nah solid video guys keep it up
Banged out McGregor though didn't he mush

@Andrew Onymous ok?

This is the best guard break I have seen. Works like a charm.
This is GOLD!
Wow.. just what I needed to know.... Having a hard time as a White level breaking the guard lol. Good one. This is the first guard pass I have learned from the ground.
As I understand it, I can't be light all the time. For the 2 on 1 grip, I need to put some power into it
Love this. I've found the "little tip" part at 03:15 to be CRUCIAL. Without it, I can't ever seem to get out properly
Only 5k subs is insane for this quality! Amazing stuff man keep it coming 💪

Great video!
thaaanks!!
outstanding
I have been using this for a little while now and have found that when I turn the knee into the hip my training partner follows my hips with theirs and i lose that twist. How to counter/prevent this?
Wow, can't believe I missed the WRIST CONTROL part all this while and was wondering why I never succeed.
great!
This is the way.
Will the standing break still work if you grab the bottom leg? How can you tell which leg is on top?
Didntwanttomakeauser it will work either way, although it is easier to break a closed guard when you push on the bottom leg.
It should really work , but an extremely important point to note there are the positions of the feet, depending on which one is on top or which one is on the bottom you must make your exit to different sides, it was funny to notice how in the second demonstration the other guy switches the foot positions to make it work, it's a great technique to get out of guard but if you don't pay attention to this detail the chance of it working decreases drastically

What's stopping the bottom guy from heel sweeping you during the process of the standup variation?

👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽great video
Thank you :)
wow!
Whom you learn your bjj from? Nice videos.
People always counter this by bucking me forward and forcing me to put my hands on the mat
Yeah that's the dance. Danaher has said you just have to get used to that and persevere.

so here's whats going to happen, I am going to try this technique with palms on the ribs and extending the elbows... i find myself swept 99.9% of the time while in someone's closed guard, so on the side you have arm trapped(double gripped), step up on that side, hips forward and head back...

Just look up knee shield passes, this vid is just to open up the guard.
Thank you
Is than sean strikland?
