Seminar

Everyday I’m Wrasslin’ Part 1 // Masterclass

If you want to have good Jiu Jitsu, you have to have a good understanding of takedowns.

A well timed takedown, can change the course of a match or score vital points when needed. There are countless examples where a takedown has been the key to victory for an athlete. 

Takedowns aren’t just useful when you’re standing – they’re critical in your sweeping game, too. After all, a sweep is just a takedown that starts in guard. 

To help you develop your takedown game Escapology BJJ’s head coach will be teaching a masterclass on 28th September covering part of his wrestling game.

This is a game Tom has be developing for a long time, which he’s used to great effect at the high-levels of BJJ.

During the Everyday I’m Wrasslin’ master class Tom will be sharing the gripping strategies, takedowns, and transitions you need to know to add some wrestling to your BJJ arsenal.

The Underhook De La Riva // Masterclass

There is no worse feeling in BJJ than that second before you know your guard is about to get passed, and knowing there’s nothing you can do about it.

You’re trapped, twisting, and hanging on for dear life then and bam—your guard’s passed like a hot knife through butter.

But imagine stopping those pesky guard passes dead in their tracks. Better yet, picture turning the tables using their attacks to take their back.

Sounds like a dream, huh? Well, it’s totally doable.

Enter the Underhook De La Riva guard.

Unlike the regular De La Riva, it almost completely shuts down your partner’s passing options. They’re left with a series of bad choices that lead to their backs getting taken or a submission.

It’s the secret sauce to defending like a champ and flipping to offence in the blink of an eye.

And you can learn it all at our next Masterclass on Saturday 29th June at 12:30PM…

During the Underhook De La Riva masterclass, Escapology BJJ head instructor Tom Barlow will be teaching the key controls, sweeps, and submissions, that will make your guard a web of destruction.

The Neon Belly // Masterclass

If you ask any BJJ player, “What’s the most uncomfortable position to get caught in?” nine times out of ten, they’d say the Knee On Belly. That shouldn’t really be a surprise. After all, having someone drive their knee through your solar plexus always sucks. 

Due to the positional dominance and discomfort of the knee on belly, your opponent will often give up submission opportunities just to relieve the pressure. That makes the Knee On Belly and fantastic addition to anyones BJJ game.

On Saturday the 25th May at 12:30pm, you’ll have the chance to learn them all…

During the Neon Belly masterclass, Escapology BJJ head instructor Tom Barlow will be teaching the key controls, transitions, and submissions, that will help you dominate from a Knee On Belly.
