I cant believe at the end of this video you had to ask people to be nice... you are probably one of the best bjj instructors on line if found. Honestly your videos and my grappling dummy have kept me sane during lockdown. Keep rolling
Eli, it would be great to you doing a live drill afterwards. I noticed that in some of these static demonstrations your partner has given you a lot of space for you to work through. As a smaller guy, I purposely teamed up with a 225 very-wide girth player. I did ok to survive but I forgot to do these moves and I couldn't get out using a shrimp out move. You are more advanced so I think you can manuever easily but for me (white belt) under pressure it was hard.
What an incredible and very comprehensive guide, thank you very much Knight JJ. Got stuck yesterday in the mounted position when the mounted person held both my arms down above my head...and bam, this video came into play!
I love these bunch of techniques from various positions or goals you do. I honestly don't get time to practice them, not enough open mat time, but I just watch and watch and hope it soaks into my subconscious things that I can try to do and hope it ties together. If I could I'd sleep with my eyes open watching these all night.
@Knight Jiu-Jitsu I appreciate you. Your videos are so well thought out, and you're good at describing a lot of the key points efficiently from lots of key positions. Thanks man, you create very valuable content.
Mate you're too good. Honestly you're too good for this world. God bless you man an upload from you automatically makes my day amazing no matter how bad it is. Exceptional tutorial!
Ive used the first one so many times if they get high under my armpits ill usually shrimp until i can get that first escape super helpful eli! Thank you!
Thank you so much. As a new white belt, I get dominated with mounts. I tried some of your escape techniques and they worked...surprising my training partner and myself. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, art and love of BJJ.
These are some awesome details, for the mount escape. A speedy mount escape is still something i struggle with. Especially now im in heavyweight division for competition. Going to work on all of these. Thanks!
Always appreciate the breakdown of all your videos and how you explain in precise detail on why it is done a certain way. I started my BJJ journey August of 2021 and been training ever since 4-6 days a week with Relson Gracie Team HK academia in Honolulu HI island of Oahu. Fell in love with the art and dove right in. I always check out your videos to help me sharpen whatever I learn to up my game even more. You truly been one of my online coaches. Mahalo nui loa for your dedication and support. Aloha
At frst i knew only buk when opponent is in Mount position n side heel control push but now i know other techniques too..again from india northeast Nagaland.. lockdown gym closed .. home watching ur videos n practising
Excellent content. I’ve been trying to find a way to word this as feedback (take it with a grain of salt), maybe it’s just preference, but I find myself wishing you might slow down a little in your instruction and talking. There is obviously so much GREAT info and detail, and it feels sometimes rushed and I don’t want to miss anything. Again, excellent knowledge and detail and I’ll be subscribing. 🤙🏼
I appreciate the politeness and the comment. I actually get that comment from time to time. I make these particular videos for short and fast reference guides. In all my classes and full length instructionals I teach in a slower, more detailed pace like I would in person. I vary the delivery speed based on the attention span of the platform, so on social media I talk through things quickly. I appreciate you watching them.
I teach everyone of these, the only other problem you may run into is the technical mount or modified mount. For that one I teach top arm through the hole between my belly button and the back of their knee, then bump them forward with a bridge as I slide south out from underneath them.
Hey Eli. I couldn’t catch what you were saying at @5:40, but seems like an important detail to getting up on your elbow, which I struggle with in this position and when in bottom half guard. Retract the shoulder, when? And push?
I think it is an important detail for sure. I see a lot of people struggle getting to their elbow because they try to hop their shoulder off the ground and stick their elbow underneath them. This is clumsy and inefficient. I kind of gloss over what I mean at 5:40, but I recommend retracting the shoulder so it pulls the whole arm back, then pushing your chest and shoulder forward over your elbow in order to get the elbow under you. Hope this helps.
The swim is fine if the posted arm is close enough, but opening the wedge of your arm to wrap theirs can be a liability if the angle is off. I mention it briefly in the video for better illustration.
I am glued to your videos! My testing partner will not get the best of me anymore! Do you have any recommendations for which budget-friendly grapple dummy to purchase? Mine is homemade from old clothes, filled with pool noodles with sand, but he's very floppy and also too tall.
What about if he has you in the position like 17:24, but your arms are fully extended out, instead of bent at the elbows? I once ended up in this position and couldn't do a thing. Still don't know how to counter it.
You can shoulder walk toward your hands until there’s enough bend in the arms to do it. The other thing to remember is that he can’t really do much to you while he is pinning your hands like that.
That is what these were specifically designed for. If they required you to be bigger and stronger, you wouldn't need technique. These are based on leverage and weight distribution and structural manipulation.
I have to watch bjj videos 10 times before class to be able to slightly remember it in class. I heard if u watch it up to 7 times it moves from short term memory to long term.
I can’t elbow escape from faster people, which is everyone. When I bump and put the elbow inside to make room for my knee to come out they move up instantly and it becomes a very expensive waste of energy.
Your teaching style is exceptional ✊🥋!!
Thank you!
Horses will watch this video intently
As they should
and Vesuvius!

I really appreciate that and glad my videos could help!
As a FNG who is seemingly always trying to get out of the mount, this is invaluable!!!

Pure art. Speechless

Great content as always, you made a first version of this video which was already great, so thanks for the updates and precious advises
Doing my first white belt tournament in 2 weeks and I was just thinking about this. Thanks.
I hope it helps. Good luck in the tournament!
Try not to get mounted, that's 4 points i believe. But just in case this will help.
Super nice, I really appreciate this great package of info!

Thank you!
This channel is phenomenal!
Thank you!
This is gold! 🙌
I teach everyone of these, the only other problem you may run into is the technical mount or modified mount. For that one I teach top arm through the hole between my belly button and the back of their knee, then bump them forward with a bridge as I slide south out from underneath them.
Definitely. And I made another video or two on just tech mount escapes too for that reason.
Damn this guy’s good.
Great video. Thank you
Simple and practical.tq.
this is dope, your one stop shop!
thx/ i saw the old video too. its really helps/ love your videos and instrections
Well explained 👏. I enjoy watching you're videos. More power to your channel 💪
Thank you!
Dropping knowledge! Thank you sir!
This was an excellent video.
Great detail! Love this channel.
Thanks Paul!
Great video, Eli! This was very helpful. Are you using your elbow to push while doing the knee elbow escape?
Yes. Push, but mostly as a frame to wedge the space open.

@@KnightJiuJitsu Yea, helps a bit thanks!
New intro music is just dope.
Great details! For the upa why do you prefer the gable grip to trap the arm versus swimming inside and wrapping? Just curious as to pros/cons
The swim is fine if the posted arm is close enough, but opening the wedge of your arm to wrap theirs can be a liability if the angle is off. I mention it briefly in the video for better illustration.
Great review! Thank you!
I am glued to your videos! My testing partner will not get the best of me anymore! Do you have any recommendations for which budget-friendly grapple dummy to purchase? Mine is homemade from old clothes, filled with pool noodles with sand, but he's very floppy and also too tall.
Thx Sensei!
thanks guys! ~
Gosto demais dos seus videos . Vc é o cara !!!
Man I need this so bad Lmaoo. Thank you once again for the free gems 🙏🏾
Crazy helpful
thank you!
First bro, keep it up 👍
Great video! But about 4:40. Can't he just go for a arm bar if he life his leg up and grab your arm? Or is that not possible?
excellent !
Bravo.... 👏
So cool Mark Steyn is teaching bjj now
What about if he has you in the position like 17:24, but your arms are fully extended out, instead of bent at the elbows? I once ended up in this position and couldn't do a thing. Still don't know how to counter it.
You can shoulder walk toward your hands until there’s enough bend in the arms to do it. The other thing to remember is that he can’t really do much to you while he is pinning your hands like that.
@@KnightJiuJitsu Good point!
Thank you for your videos ! Do these technics function when somebody heavier than you is on you ?
That is what these were specifically designed for. If they required you to be bigger and stronger, you wouldn't need technique. These are based on leverage and weight distribution and structural manipulation.
Thank you for sharing you are a great great teacher, very very clear and effective
I appreciate that very much
Can I ask what kind of Matt’s your using and where you bought them .
Thank you for sharing
Those are from zebra. They’re very old but have held up great over the years.
@@KnightJiuJitsu thank you
God’s blessings to y’all
Supporting
Love the videos but why do y’all belts have a blue tip instead of a red tip???
I’m a black belt under Royce Gracie and he uses the blue sleeve instead of the red for his people.
First! Ossssssss! Thanks for the video
9:43 I practice going to the back from there is that practical
If it works it’s practical 👍
👌👌👌💯💯💯💯
I have to watch bjj videos 10 times before class to be able to slightly remember it in class. I heard if u watch it up to 7 times it moves from short term memory to long term.
wow
📝👍🏿
I can’t elbow escape from faster people, which is everyone. When I bump and put the elbow inside to make room for my knee to come out they move up instantly and it becomes a very expensive waste of energy.
Try blocking their knee with your bottom elbow.
@@graciescottsdale hmm ok, I’ll try it out!
🥋🥇👍💪
Now drills this 2-3 years and you can be able to escape the mount....probably.
good video but you didn't cover the situation where the person on top brings their leg up.
I have a whole video on escaping that position. Look up my video on escaping technical mount.
That 👖 off escape 😏
My personal favorite of course 😏
Jiu jitsu daw kayo ni adullah javeir
I get a headache from all the super fast english oh man.
Thank you!
Thank you!
