In this video we look at a great groundwork technique for grappling and MMA that allows you to trap your opponent’s arm under their body and enables you to attack with ground & pound and guard passing.

Here are the key points
Control your opponent’s wrist and lock it down by the side of your opponent
Don’t try and reach under the body to grab the arm and don’t try to pass your opponent’s arm under the body…
…instead use a stacking motion to raise your opponent’s hips up and then move their hips toward their trapped arm
Keep their arm fixed in place while you move their hips and then pass their arm to your opposite hand
Keep their arm trapped by driving your weight back down onto it so that you can remove their defenses on that side
Attack with strikes on the compromised side and look for the guard pass
This technique can be used for both MMA and BJJ or other grappling arts.
