Venezolano Posted November 13, 2002 Posted November 13, 2002 How long before your first submission? Valencia - Venezuela.
monkeygirl Posted November 13, 2002 Posted November 13, 2002 My first "submission" was probably at orange belt, about a year into my training. Orange belt self-defense was single-handed hair grabs. The defense involved a wristlock. However, this wasn't like a grappling match or anything, my partner just stood there while I tried to make him/her tap. I honestly don't remember the specific instance. I guess I just didn't think about it. Now that I've progressed through the ranks, though, I really wish I had kept track of that sort of stuff--sort of like a martial arts "baby book". Just like babies have first teeth, first words, first walking, etc., I wish I kept track of first belt, first sparring match, first tournament, and yes, first submission. I guess it's too late now 1st dan & Asst. Instructor TKD 2000-2003No matter the tune...if you can rock it, rock it hard.
Mikie Mike Posted November 14, 2002 Posted November 14, 2002 The first time I ever tapped someone out was my first day of training & sparring, I got them with a scarfold lock and tapped them, I didn't even know what a scarfold lock was at the time but I accompleshed it
three60roundhouse Posted November 14, 2002 Posted November 14, 2002 In tae kwon do, we did a lot of standing wrist and arm locks and submissions like that. In Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu we learned my first submission, the keylock or "americana" from the mount, on the second or third class. I first submitted someone with a basic "X-choke" with the gi, from the closed guard. 1st dan Tae Kwon DoYellow Belt Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu16 Years OldGirls kick butt!
Kensai Posted November 14, 2002 Posted November 14, 2002 I think mine was a Nikkyo pin. Took me ages to figure it out, I must have been trying to put it on for about 10 minutes. But now, its on in seconds Mwhahahahaha! Take Care.
Red J Posted November 14, 2002 Posted November 14, 2002 The first night that we did grappling I got a submission with a simple front neck choke. My experience with wrestling really gave me an advantage. The tough part is applying the moves that are "illegal" in wrestling. I had to lose my mind to come to my senses.
Karateka_latino Posted November 16, 2002 Posted November 16, 2002 On my second class i submited a guy twice after he submited me twice two.. I caught him first with a reverse guillotine and second with a rear neck choke... Ah that was a battle. lol
Iron Arahat Posted November 30, 2002 Posted November 30, 2002 Mine was a rear naked choke. My opponent was on the ground stretched out hiding his face, and holdting his lapel, thinking that way I couldn't choke him.

Severe Matburn Posted December 23, 2002 Posted December 23, 2002 I think my first submission was an armbar from bottom on my friend before i took formal grappling training... "razor elbows, killer knees, iron fists and monster kicks""Nice punch!!!, now let's see how well you punch with a broken arm"
