Nognitsy(Scissors Takedown)

Executing the Scissor Takedown from a Russian Tie, two-on-one grip:

1. Start with a two-on-one grip and switch it across to the opponent's shoulder to control their torso.
2. Enter the takedown by supporting yourself on your hand and bringing the opponent down with you.
3. Position your leg behind the opponent's knees, not at the ankles, to ensure a natural movement and prevent injuries.
4. Practice the entry by posting your hand on the mat, bringing your leg across and behind the opponent's knees slowly.
5. Avoid driving your shin against the opponent's leg, as this can cause injury. Ensure your leg goes behind both of the opponent's legs.
6. Practice the sequence slowly: change your grip, post your hand, leg behind, and drop.
7. When you become more proficient, you can enter the takedown from the front by jumping in.
8. Ensure your partner knows how to fall correctly by sitting and falling backwards to avoid injury.
9. Practice the takedown at full speed only after mastering the leg position and the partner's safe fall.
