  • The Triangle Choke is one of the most important submissions in jiu jitsu, but so many people struggle to finish it. This video I go through an entire system for finishing the triangle choke and how to defend all the primary counters.

    Excellent explanation! I finished a triangle yesterday on an opponent, but only after I realized that he was making space between my knee and his neck. Through dumb luck, I shifted a bit to the side and closed that gap. He tapped almost immediately. Literally one inch of space made the difference. Now I know why that worked.

    As a smaller guy, I'm in guard a lot and get into the starting position for the triangle quite often but struggle with finishing it. Thanks for all the great details and adjustments along with the counters to all the various defenses. I'll be practicing these adjustments and going for more triangles now. Thank you!

    Yet another effing PHENOMENAL instructional from quite literally the best BJJ teacher on the internet (and trust me that is NOT hyperbole; you are a BORN TEACHER- period). A few questions, all topical with the exception of one, which is one of those completely out of left field/"I'm here so I might as well ask"-type queries. Anyway, here goes:
    1). What are some tricks you use to get your opponent's arms separated so that you can shoot into pre-Triangle?
    2). What is the secret to finishing a triangle from the straight on position? I believe one should always try and get perpendicular to their opponent in order to do a proper Triangle but how does one do it/what are the keys to success when one attempts it without moving to an angle?
    3). What should your feet be doing/which way should your toes be pointed, which foot positions are most important (specifically when it's locked up and you're trying to get the finish)? Also- when it's locked up, do you recommend trying to grab under Uke's leg (or somewhere else on him) in order to get the finish? So for example, grabbing the head and pulling it toward you will usually resort in a tap- but is there another point of interest /point of contact where if you, say, "grab 'this' part of Uke" you'll make the whole thing far tighter and much more favorable?
    4). Lastly: do you do Judo?
    Sorry for all of my questions- it's just that I'm 6' tall with skinny, long legs and I LOVE the Triangle (despite it itself feeling rather blasé toward me lol).
    Thanks for all your fantastic content; you are a true credit to both the sport and the art.

    Ahhh, you covered my number one defense. I try to pull the leg down and lean on it. However, your didn't lean on it. I do like K.C. taught it and I have been nearly impossible to triangle. Only one dude seems to know what I am doing and makes the proper adjustments and gets the finish. Everyone else bails and goes to a different move.

    Hey 👋 I’m back. Preach the most important detail. Elbow control. A lot of people want to say “arm and a head” that’s half right. Having a head and arm with the elbow being placed across and into the pocket is the most high percentage. So maintaining the elbow because the correct finish for triangle escapes is bait (meaning force the trapped arm w/o the elbow shelfed across. Forcing your trapped arm into your own pocket same side and control the far side hip with your free hand under the far hip. Either forcing the turtle or passing to side control.
