Hm....I am a teenage girl, so I am smaller and naturally do a lot of work from the guard. I enjoy the traingle choke; it's one of my stronger moves, and if somepone pulls away I can transition to an armbar from the guard. That's my favorite move. I also like working on sweeps and those are what I think I need to improve most in my game.

As I study Aikido, its really got to be a Sankyo. A wrist lock come take down, then into a full wrist, elbow and shoulder lock. Very nice is done well and using Ki and not strength. The first time it was put on my a thought I was going to die.....:lol:

Hehehe...nasty little technique where you twist one arm at the wrist and use it to push against the guy's throat. You basically make them strangle themselves.

I like chokes! =D

 

 

It takes sacrifice to be the best.


There are always two choices, two paths to take. One is easy. And its only reward is that it's easy.

K4J4, how do you set up the kimura? I have a hard time getting to that position unless I try for the chest-on-chest sweep and it fails. I rarely see opponents who put their arms down while trapped in the guard.

Hello three60roundhouse

 

The way I was taught is to hold my opponent real close and wrap up one arm and keep my head to the side of that arm. I will describe using my left arm around their right and my head at their right side of face.

 

This leaves them one arm free which is away from my head and so cannot be used for hitting much. This would be their left arm in this case. Then you loosen your grip on their arm and head so that they try to pull it out and sit up. This gives the opportunity to grab the wrist as they sit back and pin their wrist to your left hip. From here you can put your right foot on the floor & sit up across to the left and hook your right arm over their right arm to go for the Kimura. If it fails you can still do the chest to chest sweep.

 

Another set up we do is to pull them towards us strongly with our hips. This can make them put out their hands for balance. Grab a wrist and follow it back as they regain their base. This is more the sort of thing an attacker on the street will do.

 

One more place I get the kimura from is when they try to escape a triangle by pushing the arm and shoulder though or by pushing the arm around to their side.

 

You should work finishing from your guard a lot three60roundhouse as if the worst happens and you get sexually assaulted then it is almost certainly a place the attacker will try to get to. Females tend to shy away from guard work but it is so important.

Thanks a ton K4j4. My guard is, I think, the strongest part of my blossoming game, and most of my practice time is spent in the guard, since I'm smaller and can use it to frustrate a larher opponent. The triangle, armbar, crosschoke, omoplate, these are all moves I practice regularly. I will try your kimura setup. :razz:

When in guard bottom i prefer the triangle, when i'm on guard top i prefer an achilles tendon lock, when i'm on mount bottom i juss like to get out of it :lol: , when on mount top i prefer the keylock and finally, on backmount top i prefer the reverse interlock choke.
