I love how you teach it first and then follow it up with a live roll to see what it looks like in real time. 👍🏼

[@jonathancourtney146]

Thank god always found myself stuck in half guard, kept trying to get full guard. But now I can sweep from this position! Thanks!

[@jedidoesjiujitsu3177]

Hell yeah!

[@malapet8317]

Man, so much good content in youtube... i want to train everyday

[@Zach_Jitsu_Shaw]

Loved this! I tried the sweeps today at Open Mat, couldn’t pull them off but definitely made me more aware of how to get into better positions to set them up. Thanks for sharing this, great vid!

[@jedidoesjiujitsu3177]

Thanks my man! Glad to hear you gave it a try 🤜🏽🤛🏽

[@eddie8668]

Your breakdowns and teaching style are awesome!

[@Josh-gp4rj]

Fantastic video, thanks for that Jedi! This will really help me in developing my own half-guard game.

[@cedward85]

Thanks! This is the best bottom half-guard video I've found!

[@johnd6258]

Love the use of the lockdown at 5:00. Love the vids Jedi!

[@chrisvillanueva5307]

Love it. Will definitely try this out

[@praytopesci]

Im digging this channel, man. Good stuff

[@jonathanfields1687]

Great stuff brotha!!!

[@samlouie5170]

Thanks for including the live rolling…helps to see the sweeps against an opposing player

[@joshpage8704]

Tried and tested. I love the live rolling examples

[@VictusMei]

Hey Jedi, you make great videos that are super valuable even ~2 years later. As a no-stripe white belt, this is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.

[@VictusMei]

The live rolling segment was really useful

[@therhythmatic]

My last tournament (a week ago) made it very clear that my bottom half guard is my weakest position. Thanks for posting this, definitely going to try it out.

[@AudreyandmeAu]

I actually love your channel

[@George-bp8tq]

Great videos. What I like about them is how you show the actual execution of the moves in an actual roll. I will be working on these! Peace man

[@jedidoesjiujitsu3177]

Thanks brotha!

[@t_share8032]

[@uchung9653]

[@jedidoesjiujitsu3177]

Đức Hùng thanks my man!

[@tongan5546]

Sweep 1 worked! Watched this right before my first nogi class tonight and hit it first try. Thank you Jedi!

[@jedidoesjiujitsu3177]

Hell yeah! Keep killing it!

[@thirdlegin3049]

Thanks Jedi haha your crack up brother legit learning everytime I watch your vids. Im addicted to it I love how hard it is. Cant wait to compete in my first jujitsu comp, my coach said you either win or you learn I just can't wait to compete an try some of these sweaps

[@jedidoesjiujitsu3177]

Good luck brotha!

[@ZombieSahara_official]

Thank you, keep going broo 😊

[@danielpena5644]

Great content and I really enjoyed your format for breaking down the move. I'm a short guy and definitely a fan of the half guard. I love using it to get into butterfly guard and x guard as well. Maybe you can do a butterfly guard breakdown next time. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

[@jedidoesjiujitsu3177]

Daniel Pena I’ll keep that idea on the whiteboard!
Thanks for the feedback!!

[@DwarfDt]

I loved ur first sweep I've noticed in the gym u can use ur other leg to trap the foot instead of needing ur arm

[@luismurgas3416]

Hey Jedi! I reached to your channel and saved videos cause i forgot some chokes and today i hit a perruvian choke thanks to you man! Thanks and keep it up! Oss

[@jedidoesjiujitsu3177]

Thanks! Glad you like my style!

[@vincechanhealthy6373]

I have seen these before but didn't really understand them. Makes way more sense with your explanations. Thanks again

[@jedidoesjiujitsu3177]

Thanks brotha. Glad you get what I’m saying

[@rubenguevara5753]

Great stuff

[@alexisvalderrama5131]

[@mtom7889]

Awesome stuff

[@jedidoesjiujitsu3177]

Thanks 🙏🏽

[@ericrostirolla5371]

good shit!!!!

[@jedidoesjiujitsu3177]

Thanks 🙏🏽

[@joshuagreen5010]

Another way one might wind up in half guard: elbow escape from mount automatically puts you there.

[@jsealejandro06]

Usually when I end up in half guard is when they break my closed guard and they are super close to passing so I panic and go to half guard. I'm getting there less and less tho as I'm getting way better at going from closed to de la Riva and then X.

[@shakabjjacademy]

Half guard is one of my favourite guard against bigger player, very good

[@jedidoesjiujitsu3177]

Rudy Surjadjaja it’s a great guard for both big and small grapplers

[@shakabjjacademy]

@@jedidoesjiujitsu3177 yess since i'm only 65kg, most people are bigger than me, LOL

[@nicolam842]

love ur videos brother 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@jedidoesjiujitsu3177]

Thanks 🙏🏽

[@wiser.kinder.calmer.6530]

Haha I thought you said it in another video too. Finger four 😂 figure four I think hehe great videos man

[@jedidoesjiujitsu3177]

Yes lol

Blue belt here; I always end up in half-guard through elbow escape, when opponent is on my top

[@yup9832]

escape videos pleaseeeee

[@goldenbiscuit420]

I like to do an imanari roll and then get in half guard from there

[@rpoperations7715]

I tried this sweep every time I ended up in half guard but I kept messing it up. For some reason I remember you sitting up and I kept trying to figure it out but i failed you. After class I came home and watched the video again to see what I was doing wrong. Lol

[@slemay2003]

You should start a Patreon dude.

[@honeyhole411]

Does the first sweep have a name? It can also be done the other direction, but I don’t know what that one called either 😂

[@jedidoesjiujitsu3177]

I don’t have a name for it lol

[@honeyhole411]

Hereby I name it “trap and roll” ✊

[@stupidandboot4507]

I think its the old school sweep

[@ohboy7790]

fingure 4? .
