Mount escapes

January 20th, 2010 by jgatienza

Basic escape from the mount (Upa):

  • if your opponent has his hand in your collar, with your right hand grab his wrist, with your left hand place it behind his elbow
  • push it  directly in the middle of your bodies
  • square up to his head/body
  • with your left leg trap his right leg
  • with your right leg bump upwards to your left shoulder for the escape

Second escape from mount:

  • your opponent has his right arm under your head
  • with your left hand hold his elbow, with your right hand work to get it on his left bicep
  • with your left leg trap his right leg
  • with your right leg bump upwards to your left shoulder for the escape

A more advanced escape from the mount described on the second example is:

  • your opponent has his right arm under your head
  • with your left hand hold his elbow, with your right hand grab his wrist and press your head down to trap his arm
  • with your left leg trap his right leg
  • with your right leg bump upwards to your left shoulder for the escape
