Turtle Guard / Sprawl Attacks: Anaconda -Tilted Darce

Transitioning from the Anaconda to the Tilted D'Arce choke from the Turtle position begins by sprawling to free the leg and blocking the opponent's hip with the forearm. The shoulder is pitched to prevent the opponent from circling and escaping. The attacking arm fences underneath the opponent, followed by a strong sprawl to push the hip to the floor and extend the leg.

1. Keep the chin and chest fixed to the opponent and attempt to secure an inverted palm-to-palm grip.
2. If the opponent bases out to prevent being turned over, instantly convert to the Anaconda by spinning the hands, moving the head over, and swinging the leg to prepare for the fall.
3. Flex the bicep on the opponent's neck and clamp the arm down with a palm-to-palm grip high in the armpit to limit their mobility.
4. Adjust the grip by curling the hand to connect to the bicep, grip the opponent's lat, slide the body towards them, and squeeze to finish the Anaconda.
5. If the opponent defends and turns back to the Turtle position, transition to the Tilted D'Arce by framing behind their neck with a palm-up grip and pulling them in to lever down on the back of their head.
6. Keep the chin fixed to prevent the opponent from going flat, secure the D'Arce choke grips, and tilt into the move by rolling the wrist into the neck to force a submission.

It's important to avoid extending the arm too far during the grip adjustment, as this can allow the opponent to escape. Instead, keep the movements tight and controlled. The Tilted D'Arce is particularly effective against larger and more developed opponents, as it forces them to support the attacker's weight with their neck, increasing the likelihood of submission.
