grappling moves every striker should learn?


Recommended Posts

I don't think there is a specific technique to learn. More importantly, learn what it feels like to roll with someone. Even if you know 0 "techniques", if you have a good base and can move your weight (and the other guy's) around, you can probably come out OK.

My favorite move would have to be RNC. Bridging is good too.

If it works, use it!

If not, throw it out!

trust me, I thought that just by being on the mounted position on top, you were set.

I've had many people attempt various mount escapes against me- only ones that worked were a bump and roll and an elbow escape. When you're underneath someone who's got a tight mount, you're going to have trouble breathing let alone have a free hand to throw an elbow.

I tried it with one of the black belts from my school. but in a self defense situation, not at sport, you can get elbowed in the groin and you wont be able to do much if you are not wearing a cup :P

Well, you could argue that the man on top could elbow to the face and theres not much the man on bottom could do about it

this opens up a space for a quicker and easier mount escape

strikes to the face wont do much from the bottom position though, there are ways to dsitract your opponent for a bit though :)

Even though you use the elbow to strike, you use it to set up a different technique or mount escape- its like someone who has an exceptionally armbar defense who gives their arm to escape the mount.
