The Knee Slice Guard Pass

Last night in class, we worked the knee slice guard pass. This is the beginners version and my application needs work, but that's why I'm making these videos, so I can watch my progression. Also, so I can review later so I don't forget and can continue drilling.

Once I got into side control, I would drill the transition into an armbar if the opponent started rolling into me and taking the back if the opponent rolled away.

Coach brought up a lot of things to keep in mind for this drill. Here are some key points I remember from last night.

1. Stay low with the knees bent
2. Keep one foot in
3. One arm reaches in to make a frame
4. The opposite foot steps past the guard
5. Reach for the closet arm
6. Slice your inside knee over your opens leg
7. Pull up on the arm as you baseball side into side control
