Easy & Effective Takedowns To Help You Win More BJJ Matches

youtube·Josh Saunders ·11:27·3 techniques

Overview

This video teaches effective takedown entries for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, focusing on avoiding common wrestling stances that leave practitioners vulnerable to submissions like guillotines and crucifixes. The instructor demonstrates a modified snap-down using extended arms and push-pull mechanics, a leg-slap variation for upright opponents, and transitions from collar ties into arm drags and underhooks while emphasizing hip positioning to prevent being thrown.
