4 years doing bjj and never once I saw such details on a move that is constantly taken (and given) for granted.
Thank you 👌
It's so underrated but also the basic movement for so many other sweeps. Foundations that we (especially me as a white belt) don't perfect will bite us later with other moves/skills.
sensei is out of breath lying down :'D! great tips, awesome explanations!
He s a student of Chris haueter and atkins.......this is straight from their seminar. As a BB I teach my students this technique, but to grasp the technique fully is to pay attention to the details. Shoulders and back press into the floor and you engage your tailbone. You rotate your head at a 35 degree angle in the direction that your going to bridge. I'm able to off balance everyone ( blackbelts included) without even trapping the arms.....it's all in the connections.......it works beautifully and without any effort
I know this is the "clock upa" aka rickson gracie mount escape. this is my immediate go to whenever i get mounted. I find it works more efficiently for me when i put both my heels together to block their ankle.
One of the best explanations I’ve seen for the Upa. Thank you 🙏🏼
I guess "tucking your tailbone" = posterior pelvic tilt aka flattening your low back?
2 stripe white belt, and this vid has really helped my success with the bridge and roll lately.
This is so good. Thanks. Can’t wait to try it.
The side shift👌 thank you.
My daughter weighs 140 pounds less than me…the leg tuck and shift weight did the trick for her thanks!
This is the BEST technique to properly do this I've seen. Thank you. Subscribed and rang the bell for all notifications. Good stuff man.
Super helpful, thanks!
Thank you for this.
Mind blown! Seriously
tucking your tailbone - haven't though of that! Thanks!
Can you control your tailbone? If you can you got a tail
Matt sounds really out of breath. Hope he is okay.
Can you show how to engage the feet?
Good explanation and details-
Thanks.
My gym doesn’t cover a lot of the details.
Where do you train?

Please allow me to not disclose the name of my gym because I don’t want to damage their reputation; but it is a very famous one, every BJJ people know them.
There is an update of my study of the technique. So I asked a senior white belt who knows more to be my Uke, it took him like 5 minutes and then I learned a ton from him, I think I reached a level that I feel happy on this technique after he taught me. I spent a very long time in the gym, and the quality of him teaching me for 5 minutes beat all the time that I invested in the gym. Not just that, I find that feedback from certain white belts just help me improve so much more than taking class.
...you go foot first *HHHHUUUUUEEEEEEEE!!!!*
