BJJ Techniques Attacks from side control 02 Baseball grip choke
Baseball bat choke ,[object Object],[object Object],There are many ways to set up this choke, I kept it simple to speed up the learning, without skipping important details.
Many times your opponent pushes your hips away to get the espace he needs to escape the control. I simply take advantage of his move and let him lift me, then I break my hips to either side, isolating his arm from his head and body.
While Im moving to his side, my left arm find its way under his arm, trying to reach his GI collar under his neck. My hips and my right arm now are blocking his head and the arm, making it hard for him to avoid the trapping of his arm, this gives me the time I need to adjust the grip. Keep tight and do not move too fast! Secure the grip before moving on.
Now with his arm trapped, I change the position of my legs and keep it tight, trying to adjust my grip to reach his collar deeply, which will make the choke more efficient. I can even use my right arm to help me get that grip, making sure I do not give him espace to move. Only after securing the grip under his neck I start working with my right arm, reaching for his lapel and gripping with only the thumb inside.
Now I am ready to finish him, and what I need is to sprawl the leg closer to his head, keeping the other one tight against his arm, which avoids him escaping the arm and being able to defend the position.  I transfer my weight from his chest to my right arm, and my elbow touches the floor, keeping the pressure until he taps!
Common mistakes that should be avoided are:  Not having a tight grip under his neck; Passing my right arm over his head instead of coming from behind, this allows my opponent to react and block the choke, or even worse, hold my arm and escape; Sprawling both legs or leaving a gap between my right leg and his arm; If you do not have a tight control throughout, you allow your opponent to turn to you and defend.  CHECK MATE!
Big cheers to my english students Dave Lucas, who took the pictures, and Steve Haydock, that helped me to demonstrate this technique. Dave Lucas, Atalla and Steve Haydock   My master Sergio Souza, and his teacher, Grandmaster Carlson Gracie
