About this video

Entering the saddle position from half guard:

  1. From half guard, if your opponent locks their legs below your knee or attempts to shoot an underhook, you can transition into the saddle.
  2. Post your hand in your opponent's armpit to slow them down.
  3. Place your other hand on the mat and move your head past your opponent's head.
  4. Kick your leg back so your knee comes behind your opponent's knee.
  5. Walk yourself back into the saddle position. This is a common and relatively easy entry depending on your opponent's reaction.
  6. From this position, you can observe your opponent's reaction and look for opportunities to attack.
