Escape From Side Control And Finish On Mount

Being stuck in bottom side control is one of the worst situations you can find yourself in. However, in Jiu Jitsu there is always a technique for every situation. In this video Sensei Douglas Santos explains how the escape starts with proper framing, which allows you to create a little space between you and your opponent.

​This space is a pre-requesite for the next step. In one movement that involves the use of your legs and your arms, you escape your opponent's control and finish with with your own attack.
