My Favorite Choke!! It took me 100s of attempts to finally feel the subtleties of this choke. I now will attack a kimora to get my elbow over the head without giving away my intentions. I also have been working a setup in top half guard, but not perfected yet. Great video.
Thank you for elaborating on the finer subtleties regarding the 'feel' of the choke. I've been struggling with this for awhile and this video certainly has helped me understand what my issues are.
It was encouraging to hear you say you failed hundreds of times to finish this choke. I appreciate the details. Hoping that helps me start finishing this choke.
I’m a new white belt- i had to spar with a brown belt, he wasn’t giving me anything so I tried this 🤦🏻♂️ it nearly work but he got super pissed and nearly ripped my arm off with a kimora. It’s definitely a good move.
Are you kidding? Any blue,purple,brown belt is going to freak out when they suddenly realize "Holy Shit, this white belt is gonna choke me out, gotta get out now!"
Lol, yeah, I like it when I sense a higher belt getting aggressive with me. Or even getting tired. Guys I can't tap, I find satisfaction if I can get them to huff and puff. It's all about them incremental improvements however you get em
Little help please! What do I do if I'm applying the choke and they've defended well by placing their face towards your body? Do I have to give up the hold or is there a way to get the head facing the right way?
Thanks for the instructional. I have one question. I’ve bee using this technique during sparring sessions, but I don’t really get the choke. My sparring partners tap because they feel like it’s a crank... is it because their chin is still tucked in a bit?
Hey Coach Tom - I know you've been a bit of a journey with your weight lifting regime and gaining mass etc but can i ask what your current weight is at present and what you think is your ideal weight for your height taking into account strength, cardio fitness, flexibility and recovery? Great choke by the way!!
Great question Ryan! Well having gained and lost 40lb multiple times over the last 15 years time and time again, I would say for my 6'3" height that about 91kg/200lb seems ton be the ultimate strength to cardio to flexibility weight for my own body structure. Especially in terms of minimising soreness from daily rolling, training and teaching! (-: Coach Tom Davey
That’s not how you position your head. That’s not how Marcelo puts his head either. Head face inwards, facing your locking bicep. If you that the guy has leverage and space to do a Hail Mary choke from the bottom. Either tap you or cause enough discomfort for you to abandon the ns. Actually Jeff Monson also faces inwards. Face down on chest. You’re so confident though lol
I use the Monson choke a lot also side control transition to this north south choke, most of the time I don't get a blood choke my shoulder pushes on the windpipe for the tap.
RUclips has ruined many industries but this is one that if you don’t truly practice daily. Just doesn’t work. Looks cool but only works against someone who has zero grappling skills.

Your channel is f-ing great! Thanks for the instruction!

I think I get it now that analogy of some stepping on your felt helped
Beautiful videos with in depth explanation for every technique. Thank you sir!!🙏
AMAZING INSTRUCTION! The!
I LIKE YOUR STUDENTS SIDE CHANGE IN THE BEGINNING BTW!
Thank you ozzies your vids have helped me a lot. I loved Sydney when visiting from US 👌🏻
Always excellent explanations. Thank you, Professor Tom 🙏
0:06 what a friggin magician!
That bicep long thing upped my finish from 4 out of 10 to practically 9 out of 10, based on quicker tap. Gracias sir
JosephBolognaTheThird yesss can’t land it without that.
Man that was super specific! I love this sport
You don't open a door with this part of your body hahaha funny Tom!
It was encouraging to hear you say you failed hundreds of times to finish this choke. I appreciate the details. Hoping that helps me start finishing this choke.
Nice. Personally, I have always wanted to make a go of this choke and just haven't found. Makes me want to give it another rip. Maybe this time.
I gave up on this choke 3 times before finally mastering it. Hope that gives some inspiration! (-: Coach Tom Davey
@@TheGrapplingAcademy me too. Well I haven't even got it yet. So far have quit it a couple times but I'm now reinspired
Hey coach, what are you doing with your left hand during the choke?
Great technique, I might have to start working on it

Nice job! Keep up the good work hassling those brown belts! (-: Coach Tom Davey
Not a good person to roll with if he gets pissed off this easy
Are you kidding? Any blue,purple,brown belt is going to freak out when they suddenly realize "Holy Shit, this white belt is gonna choke me out, gotta get out now!"
his Ego was hurt way more than his neck!

Best BJJ channel I've found on RUclips.
Liked and subbed. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the kind words and feedback! Happy rolling (-: Coach Tom Davey

Haha I like that I'm going to try it when I train. I love you in a very non homosexual way lol seriously thank you though I'm glad I subbed
If I visit Australia I'm going to come train at your place!
Sounds great you are welcome down here anytime! (-: Coach Tom Davey
Just remind him you're the "non-homosexual" lol
Verrryyy nonhomosexual way. For sure.
Надо сегодня на тренировке попробовать!
Keep up that hard training in Russia! (-: Coach Tom Davey

My fav choke... unfortunately I separated my shoulder doing this. Lol
Eek! That is a crazy injury! Great choke though! (-: Coach Tom Davey
subbed 👍
Is this Lachlan Giles ?
No Lachlan is yet another handsome Australian BJJ COACH AND COMPETITOR! (-: Professor Tom Davey
@@TheGrapplingAcademy thanks ! It's perhaps strange, but they look really similar for me
He’s tapping way to quickly! Either you’ve got this down pat or he’s scared 😅
I have been known to efficiently squeeze necks (-; Tom Davey
Usually Brown and Black Belt use very well their height, they even feels like 2x more heavy

I changed the way I do this after feeling my red/white viral belt Coach do it to me. Game changer.
How does this choke constrict both sides of the neck?
Bicep and lat/armpit. Tom Davey
I use the Monson choke a lot also side control transition to this north south choke, most of the time I don't get a blood choke my shoulder pushes on the windpipe for the tap.

Did you really say that? 😂
Check out some Marcelo Garcia footage. Literally everything requires practice or it wouldn’t be called a ‘skill’
HAHAH what an adorably ignorant comment, definitely a white belt.
Push the shoulder down also. Get to the floor. That helps too
