About this video

Passing half guard to set up a Brabo choke:

  1. When the opponent attempts to play half guard, place your left arm over their shoulder.
  2. Your right hand goes under their armpit to connect your hands together in a guillotine-like grip.
  3. Force the opponent to put their shoulder back on the mat.
  4. As they touch their arm to the mat, fall over their head to your left, ensuring their head is on the outside.
  5. Position your body to the side, and as you fall, close your right arm tightly.
  6. Secure the triangle with your arms, closing it first before moving your right hand behind their back.
  7. If the opponent tries to open their legs and move with you, you can't prevent them from moving.
  8. Stop their movement by walking a little inside and then pass your right arm behind them to close the triangle.
  9. After securing the arm triangle, finish the choke by jumping over their body and ending up on top.
