Continuing on with the guard passing that I’ve been working on…
Closed Guard Pass
- Maintain my posture by keeping head up, flexing my butt and hips to resist him breaking me down with his hips and legs.
- Right hand rolls up partner’s lapels and grabs it (makes it harder for him to open up his gi to break my grip). Maintain tension on the lapels so that he feels me pulling him down, controlling his body with my grip (kill all slack).
- Left hand grab his gi pants along the outside of his right hip, with my elbow outside of this right knee, this will help protect from triangles.
