Completing The Pass | Shaking Past The Arm Post

Addressing the issue of an opponent posting on the hip during a guard pass:

1. Begin by pushing the opponent's knee down to the mat to elevate their leg and find the stack position.
2. If the opponent posts on their hip to prevent the pass, commit your weight to the post, ensuring their arm is extended and locked.
3. Keep your elbows closed and your head positioned over the opponent's head.
4. Shake your hip to disrupt the opponent's post, allowing your hip to slide off and hover as you complete the pass.
5. Exercise caution when practicing this technique, especially with smaller training partners, to avoid causing injury to their wrist or fingers.
6. When driving the opponent's knee to the mat, use the heel of your palm from behind the knee for a secure push that sticks even against resistance.
7. As you establish the stack and attempt to pin the opponent, if they frame against you, roll your hip down, commit your weight, and shake to break their frame and pass.

It's important to be mindful of the safety of both yourself and your training partners when applying this technique.
