• Full mount bottom gameplan!

  Survive - defend - escape - attack. Andre Galvao developed a great instruction about how to behave and act when you are mounted. He offers an excellent breakdown of all different kunds of mount. Basedvä on that you will get specific sets of escapes for each kind of mont and each stage of progress of beeing mounted and getting attacked. You get reversals as well as escapes and guard retention and escapes/reversals straight into guard passes and submussion attacks. A. G. explains with great detail and easy to follow. He provides a great understanding oj jiu jitsu overall explained via mount position top and bottom for self defense and sport! Highly recommend!!!

• Various Aspects of Escaping Mount

  I like that he mentioned and showed certain bridging movements to deal with striking. I'm glad it mentioned the self-defense aspect of surviving. Other than that, it goes over various escapes for different positions you may find yourself in and what to avoid doing to prevent undesirable results. It goes over quite a few escapes. I may watch it again, in order to get a better grasp over the material. I felt his instruction was concise. Near the end, he goes over ways to prevent submissions your opponent may try, and details in application of what you are doing to avoid trouble.

• A high quality instructional

  Objective of this instructional Andre states that this instructional is about defensive strategies from the mount position. The focus is on gaining a foundational understanding of the mount bottom position and escaping this position. In addition, the last volume of this instructional includes some defences for the armbar and an omaplata escape. Content Volume 1 (46 minutes and 3 chapters, including an introduction) covers: a brief introduction including the objectives of the instructional; the second chapter covers a range of topic specific warm up drills (i.e., various bridging, hip escape and movement drills including rolling); and the final chapter is an overview of the mount position including variants from both the top and bottom position. The last chapter identifies the range of things that you should not do and the things you should do when in the bottom position from both a self-defence and BJJ perspective. Volume 2 (45 minutes and 6 chapters) covers: how to survive the mount bottom position by using positioning, framing and choosing appropriate responses to your opponent’s actions; the Upa escape, with Andre noting that this escape is often his first option to escape the mount, as even if it fails it will open up space to escape; the mount base escape, which is an escape used in response to the situation where the opponent during an Upa escape is able to free and post their trapped leg; several forms of the mount shin frame escape, which is an elbow escape variant including a version where the opponent crosses their feet under your legs and applies strong pressure to your hips; and the mount shin frame overhead escape, which is an escape to use where the opponent has crossed their feet under your legs and using one arm they control your head. Volume 3 (45 minutes and 6 chapters) covers: mount arm trap escapes (x3 versions), which is a basic escape involving trapping their arm(s) with your arms, then driving up with your arms in combination with a Upa to escape; mount arm trap escape version 2.0, is for situations where the opponent has their legs up high under your arms or they have grape-vined your legs with one arm under your head and the other under your arm on the other side and their hands are joined; pressure mount escape is for situations where both of your arms are underhooked by your opponent and their hands are joined under your head with their aim to move to the S mount; mount press escape which is an escape where your opponent does not have control of your upper body and you can easily move to the single x guard; mount press escape version 2.0 is similar to the previous version, however the opponent has grape-vined your legs or crossed their feet under your legs; and the wall walker escape, is used to escape the technical / Z mount. Volume 4 (49 minutes and 5 chapters) covers: S mount frame escape, which is a simple and effective escape; mount back roll escape to ankle lock is an escape and submission attack used when your opponent has moved into the high mount, but it does require a level of flexibility to perform; an armbar defence from an S mount armbar (i.e., centred around getting the elbow to the ground); armbar defence from an S mount armbar that leads to a guard pass (i.e., rocking up and stacking the opponent to withdraw the arm in the armbar and then using a leg drag to move to side control or a second version without the leg drag); and the limp arm armbar defence, which is Andre’s version of the hitchhiker armbar escape and also includes coverage of an omaplata escape. Andre is an excellent and confident instructor. As with his other instructionals that I have purchased he speaks clearly, is engaging and knowledgeable. As you would expect and consistent with his other instructionals Andre repeats the technique including at different angles at a slow pace while continuing to talk through the technique and finally at full speed. Andre’s style is to coach you through the techniques and as required he adds other details and observations. Picture and sound quality are excellent and consistent through the instructional. One camera has been used and the range is excellent, as you are close to the action and can easily see the details of the technique. The available previews are consistent with the whole instructional. In summary, this instructional would appeal to white and blue belts who wish to improve their ability to escape from mount bottom. As noted previously this instructional covers escapes from a range of different mounts and as a bonus includes some escapes from armbars and the omaplata. In my opinion the techniques are effective, efficient and are easy to learn. The total length of the instructional is 3 hours and 5 minutes long.
