  • The Kimura is a powerful move and can be used to sub your opponent but in my view it is first and foremost a powerful way to grip and control your opponent. These moves are excellent for both sports Jiu-Jitsu and MMA. Sakuraba has many times shown its effectiveness against several of the worlds top grapplers. Im a long time fan and admirer of Sakuraba so I thought a Sakura inspired sequence would be a good idea.

    I'm sure you already know this. But when you mentioned the standing position and getting slammed, there's a pretty quick counter to it. Bring the left foot around, hooking the top of your foot on the back of his knee. It nullifies the slam so that you'll land on top of him. It was a favorite technique of Sakuraba's as well. Something I remember from my freestyle wrestling days.

      I learned that technique since I was a toddler and my older brother would always try to powerbomb or back suplex me. Old school haha

    Very detailed and comprehensive breakdown. It's nice to see techniques really explained in detail like this. In a lot of cases they're shown but not explained terribly well this is detailed very well. I look forward to trying this in my training and this teaching style is perfect for someone like me who is somewhat technique obsessed.

    I was going to call you a master instructor or something, but I don't feel like that would have much weight coming from a random person; I'll just say you have some of the most impressive techniques I've seen/tried.
    Thanks.

      Trust me you wouldnt really be able to do those techniques youve seen just naturally, i started training at tristar last week and i had watched tons of his instructionals but they didnt serve me anything since i had a low level of experience in actual grappling, i bet that after i gain some experience ill come back to these videos and actually understand how to implement them in my game

    @3:36 there is a great opportunity for leg scissors around the neck, when I'm tired I go that route. I've had many success in training doing this on people my rank - is this something you feel is a sound strategy overall? Thanks for the excellent videos Zahabi ji! Keep up the good work!

    I was just wondering why people stopped applying this kind of kimura. There was this other guy, I guess his name's Kanehara, he used to do some interesting variations of this move too.

  • @jesse3380
    @jesse3380 8 лет назад +1

    Hey Firas! I was trying this in an open mat, and was wondering what is there to stop the guy from taking your back when you're posturing up for the kimura? Man I was training with asked that, and proceeded to take my back. Am I doing it wrong, or is that just one of the dangers if you're not proficient enough with this technique? Thank you, love all of your videos!

    • @danieldelanoche2015
      @danieldelanoche2015 6 лет назад +1

      Jesse Tietjen I know this response is a bit late, and I'm not Firas Zahabi lol, but my advice would be to take a big step out like Firas does, and immediately sit to the kimura with no pause in between. Obviously he's breaking it down nice and slow for us, but in a live situation, it's probably a quick blur through til he gets on top. That's generally how my kimuras look (to an extent), basically a blur that almost looks like a sloppy scramble, but I have the kimura control, so in reality I'm just using it to roll through to a dominant position. Initial hesitation when beginning a kimura attack seems to be the mistake I see most , and yes even the mistake I personally make most lol.

      I am not Firas Zahabi but I am a catch wrestling apprentice. What I can tell you is the fact that catch wrestling stylists have the highest kill ratio in MMA.

  • @brendanoshea2936
    @brendanoshea2936 9 лет назад

    i think sakuraba no use thumb on wrist. it helps him maintain control while pulling of those whiled armbar transitions which look like he should be shooken off the armbar. i.e. vs. randleman. this is just my guess to why he doesn't use the thumb could just be the way he learned it and got use to it. nonetheless it definitely helped him in those situations.

  • @finlaynixon3970
    @finlaynixon3970 9 лет назад

    love this technique, been playing around with it since watching this vid! is there anything you can do with the kimura grip when they have both hooks? or would the risk of being one arm rnc'd be too much?

      The original Jujitsu is more like the combination of present day Judo and present day Jujitsu, I think.

    • @davibourne3856
      @davibourne3856 5 лет назад

      @@hayek218 Ju-jutsu has strikes and weapon mastering (even swords depending of Ju-jutsu style). For historical purposes is great but strikes are not at boxing level, thw throws despite of having the same principles, are not like Judo or jiu-jitsu throws and the ground fight will never surpass a solid ne-waza.

    • @CoachZahabi

      Dans se ca il y a plusieur options. 1. rouler et returner a la guard. 2. Le "Peekout" 3. Se relever debous et trouver un "under hook" Je vais montrer see option ici sur yotube bientot.

      Tristar Gym Perfect! I was wondering too why wouldn't you go for an underhook and stand before the "limp arm" part ... I understand it is another viable option, right? Really digging your videos, specially the striking ones... Would really love to see your favourite mma setups for a takedown!

    • @CoachZahabi
      @CoachZahabi  9 лет назад +1

      albertoliverserna yes going for the undertook is also a very good option. However if the guy behind you is a better wrestler the Kimura is also a good option if you are very skill with this hold.
