Been watching your videos for about 2 years and still think you are hands down the best at technical breakdowns of positions and submissions keep it up my man!
Less than one month white belt here I used that yesterday and passed a blue belt I am pretty sure he was shocked I pulled that one off! Thanks Professor!
You’re getting SWOLE lately coach! Love your content I was just thinking I wish you made a new video on beginner guard passes and voila! Thanks for the videos
The bit about the elbows is exactly what I needed. I have never hit this pass before, my elbows always get caught, but I feel confident that I will now. Thank you!
I've noticed upper belts seem to splay their legs like you said. So now I should be able to deal with it. I think when it's cold outside I should take a trip down under and visit your gym! Thanks!
Hi coach thank you so much I tried this technique today worked perfect for me twice with guys never was able to pass ther guard before love it thank you this is my favourite technique
SUMMARY: 1.dumbell row 2.hands in 3.grab your hands, if you cant, grab his thigh 4.pull him closer to break his posture and forward lean on him 5.forearm choke 6.if the choke is deffended, puff your chest out and move his legs away 7.congratulations, you are now on side control
I wish I lived near your gym Tom, I'd love to see how much progress my studies would progress having you as a coach for bjj Love the way you break techniques down and more importantly the reasons behind the details! Awesome stuff dude!
Not at all what I’ve been taught the one I have been taught (yes I am a white belt) is the leg push then knee slide which hardly works right especially on anyone good or who can do a sit-up this is absolutely what I will be trying from now on thank you for this video
There is so much information here. I'm taking notes and screenshots so I can review all of these steps in detail, at it's taken me 3 hours to document the first 4 minutes. Makes me wonder if 1 minute of real time BJJ instruction has the potential to be unpacked for 1 hour and digested slowly for beginners like myself. This has to be a more valuable use of "off the mat" time than my typical cursory skimming of fun to watch but impossible to absorb advanced videos. Especially when I don't even have enough general understanding of BJJ to distinguish useful techniques from pipe dream moves for someone at my level.
Slick and efficient technique. What I'm afraid of when you pressure as hard when they are stacked it'll hurt lower back (his knee is more or less in front of his face and spine is under pressure) and could cause seriously and long lasting trouble with the vertebrae discs. If we all use this we all will soon have problems with lower back. Any comments?
You can do the scissor. Or you can do a modified triangle where you put your leg around there neck like a normal triangle then put the same side forearm on the other side of their neck and grab your shin. Then figure four the legs and squeeze. Hard as shit to get out of once the forearm is there
I’m at a Relson Gracie academy. 59 year old chubby white belt. Most guys here start rolling by sitting and facing each other. I’m grabbing ankles and racing to get to side control. I’m slow so it’s not working well.
I just had my first class and I found if you move backward (running away on your elbows) they will eventually stop bringing you up. Hope that makes since. Hope 2 avoid all injury hope you all do as well ❤️
People usually take some grips on the arms before opening their legs. if they have a grip on just one arm, the pass wont work and you will get triangled.
"Safest" I totally got choked out twice last week doing this pass when the black belt stuck his fists on each side of my neck and squeezed his legs together.
I’m new to BJJ and I actually managed to use this guard pass in class yesterday- twice! Thank you for making this so simple and so easy to understand!
Me too! I thought of this comment when I did it 😂 hope it’s going well for you!

He's a close first next to John Danaher on Bernardo Faria channel.
Brand new to BJJ at 45 years old with a robot leg...this video is hands down the best explanation I've seen. Thanks professor.

For a guy 3 days in this has been so helpful. Thank you for an amazing instruction
Unreal break down thanks a lot from ireland

Fresh white belt here. I’m going to try this tonight at training.
I've noticed upper belts seem to splay their legs like you said. So now I should be able to deal with it. I think when it's cold outside I should take a trip down under and visit your gym! Thanks!
Thank you tom
Thanks for this video! I've been getting triangles like crazy and this has helped me to be successful getting free from guard.
Hi coach thank you so much I tried this technique today worked perfect for me twice with guys never was able to pass ther guard before love it thank you this is my favourite technique
I tried this twice while I was sparring and it worked. Thank you soooo much
It worked 2 times while rolling today!!!
this is an excellent pass which is highly effective! Thx Tom
This was my favorite guard pass when I was white belt and blue belt and I still like it
SUMMARY:
1.dumbell row
2.hands in
3.grab your hands, if you cant, grab his thigh
4.pull him closer to break his posture and forward lean on him
5.forearm choke
6.if the choke is deffended, puff your chest out and move his legs away
7.congratulations, you are now on side control
Ok I’m 100% convinced this guy led 300 spartan warriors to victory in 480 BC and has now come back to pass on his Ju Jitsu knowledge….
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💪
Excellent video!!
Thank you Professor Tom! White belt here and this is great. You'remy second coach! lol

You're good teacher :) always something good to learn

I just started training bjj. Your videos are really great and clear. Thank you very much . 👍🏻
"Or my arms are very short" Hate it when that happens!
awesome! bro, please have the whitebelt super series course too! :)
Coach Tom,
Great info, keep the videos coming. You have a following in Arizona.
Great video from start to finish.
perfect as usual. thanks for the video
thank you
The quality of these videos are amazing, keep them coming, you have helped my jits so much¬
Thanks coach Tom!!!

Love it
Thanks for another lesson coach!
Awesome
WB 0d and I can't wait to try this in class tomorrow!!!
I appreciate these videos so much thank you :)
Great video brother very usefull 👊🏻
Beautiful, thanks coach!!!
My favorite pass!
Awesome video.
I’m at a Relson Gracie academy. 59 year old chubby white belt. Most guys here start rolling by sitting and facing each other. I’m grabbing ankles and racing to get to side control. I’m slow so it’s not working well.
Thank you so much
Looks awesome!
Better than the knee slice pass?
I'm a white belt.
I believe I love you
😂😂😂😂🥰
Good stuff
Great
I like this.
Nice!
For training, is there a way to reduce potential for spine injury when stacking?
I just had my first class and I found if you move backward (running away on your elbows) they will eventually stop bringing you up. Hope that makes since. Hope 2 avoid all injury hope you all do as well ❤️
I'm sick of getting swept every time I try to stand up to break guard. With this I shall have my revenge.
Who names their child "Professor"¿
It’s his rank when you reach black belt level
@@lumox4x4wehelpyouexplore49 I'm pretty sure his name is professer.
@@nathanielnitsch1293 actually both, so you would refer to him as “Professor Professor” in a class
@@Oldmanbraun You're right, how foolish of me.
That’s such a great concept. Next time I train I’m going to attempt to tap my partners with pressure only
Tom’s shirt is fucking dope i need that
Great👍
People usually take some grips on the arms before opening their legs. if they have a grip on just one arm, the pass wont work and you will get triangled.
Thanks Two arms in two arms out
That’s the most hair I think I’ve ever seen on you Tom.
Can you do a video of what to do if someone has you in side control
Fas Unio get out of it lol
Knee elbow escape
What micro changes do you make for no gi?
LOL dude you have got jacked all of a sudden. Juicy Tom was born ;)
I would love to sub to your channel like 10 times. XD
"Safest" I totally got choked out twice last week doing this pass when the black belt stuck his fists on each side of my neck and squeezed his legs together.
More pressure!
OSS!
Nothing better than a good old fashioned stack pass. Uncomfortable, demoralizing, and tons of pressure. Reminds me of marriage. 🫢🫣😝
Thank you!!!
Tom’s shirt is fucking dope i need that
Thank you so much
