Powerful Closed Guard Triangle Setup Used at the Highest Level

[@StillRolling]

Had some people try to control my right leg in the past. A little kick to the right knee and they have to post or eat the mat. Open season for the triangle🤙love this stuff brother. Happy New Year!

[@theticoboy]

Love this move. It’s probably my go to from closed guard. Of course Jon dropping knowledge with the new detail on how to scoop his arm out. Awesome!!

[@JonThomasBJJ]

We learnt this at my academy last week. Been a really good one to work on over and over

[@JonThomasBJJ]

It’s such a good technique.

[@nicocontreras5366]

Very good, I have my closed guard put aside to learn better the more modern stuff but this triangle set up looks great.

[@JonThomasBJJ]

Yeah closed guard is extremely powerful when you can set it up, also when you have a good open guard you can afford to be really aggressive with it.

Now this is legit

@JonThomasBjj hi professor John would you be able to do a breakdown of bjj bet micael galvao vs portio? Micael played a beautiful closed guard as usual

[@theticoboy]

Hi John, the over hook from closed guard. essentially feed into the Sao Paolo pass? Could you please do a video on how to defend it? I have a hard time dealing with that pass. Thanks!!

Hey Jon - at 4:48 have you thought of going to the Williams guard style armbar of your opponent's left arm?

What a great coach. Curious, is your gym in California? if yes, then what city? If I’m close, I would love to sign up. It’s hard to find a good coach.
