Kimura from North/ South

[tallgeese]

This week was all about the North/ South position. A position that's taken for granted about everywhere I've been. We transition there during open mat, stop gap there from escapes, but never really stop and break down the how and why of the position or really dig into the submission from there.

So, this week we focused on this entirely. In our recap, we talk about transitioning from side, a common thing, and attacking with the kimura. All the while taking a couple of common contingencies into account. So, here we go:

So up for discussion, who uses (likes, hates, ect.) North/ South and what are your favorite sequences from there?

Great tutorial, Alex; as always.

I love it because, for me, it can be a very dominate position, and the transitions in and out give many optimistic opportunities. This is one of my favorite because of the isolations that can be garnered at each turn.

I love to smother, and there are many moments where I can do just that.

LOVE IT!! Thanks, Alex for the recap!!
