5th degree Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt Ricardo Marques covers a series of attacking sequences from side control, ensuring you always see the opportunity for a submission!

Look at a series of chokes such as the ezekiel, paper cutter, and loop choke from various different spots in side control.

Understand the fundamentals of correctly setting up the triangle from side control and finish it every time.

Focus on isolating the arm and add a list of high level kimura setups and finishes to your arsenal.

In its simplest form, the primary goal of Jiu Jitsu is to control and submit your opponent. As side control is a great position that offers a lot of control, the high level technique available today makes maintaining positions like these more and more difficult. In this series, Ricardo covers the side control position as a whole, from how to maintain control to setting up and finishing creative and high level submissions.

Maximize the usefulness of the gi with the scarf and loop chokes covered in this series and focus on the particular grips used to make your choke as effective as possible. Setting up mounted triangles or triangles from side control can open up an opportunity for your partner to recover their guard, but Ricardo makes special note of that by using strategically placed grips and movements to set up the submission without creating too much space.

Increase your finishing rate of the kimura attack with the proper setup and finishing mechanics, and look at creative alternative options such as using the shin to finish a choke if your opponent happens to defend the kimura. Also, check out the slick transition to a brutal americana if the kimura is unsuccessful. Watch this instructional and be amazed at how Ricardo has an answer and an alternative for every possible scenario.
