Bjj Drills For Side Control Movement (On The Mats With Chewy)

In this BJJ drills video I teach some fun side control movements. I’ve done a previous video showing these BJJ drills. In this video I take you along with me and a small group and go over the drills and give a little more of an explanation.

Side control can be an amazing position if you know how to use it. But often times I hear people say they can’t hold side control. This usually stems from a lack of counters to their opponent’s defense.

That’s Where These BJJ Drills For Side Control Come Into Play

In the video we cover the:
– Hop Over
– Hip Switch To Kesa Gatame and Reverse Kesa Gatame
– Identify the sweet spot for pressure
– Surfboard Switch
– Shin Cutter

Each one of these techniques is a great adjust to common defenses from someone on the bottom. They can also be used for great movement drills.

During this particular class we used them to warm up before we got into the more in depth techniques in our X Guard and 1 X system.

The reason I love these drills so much is that if you can move around your opponent’s defense it’s so much easier to fight them. For instance with the Hop Over. If my partner commits fully to defend on one side, if I am able to Hop Over. I can then make my way to his undefended side.

Also, by getting around the person’s defense with these BJJ drills we are more likely to have a stronger side control position.

As always,

I hope these BJJ Drills help you and your game. If you work them, I’m sure you’ll get a boost to your Side Control position.
