About this video

Escape to knees and get underhook from one hook in position:

  1. Defend the choke and push down on the leg while moving your hips up.
  2. If unable to place a strong hook behind the opponent's knee, switch grips to control their arm with both hands.
  3. Turn and place both knees on the mat, pulling up on the opponent's arm and driving your head into them.
  4. Walk your knees close to the opponent to lift your right arm and break the gap between your shoulder and their chest.
  5. Once your shoulder breaks the gap, bring your elbow out and hug their body.
  6. Move your head to the other side of the opponent's head, transitioning into a top half guard smashing position.
  7. Combine moves by attempting to place the hook and transitioning to 50-50 or controlling the arm and coming up to the knees.
  8. Clear your shoulder, lift the elbow, control the body, and move your head to the other side to end in a strong half guard position.
