Beautiful. I've done this lock and throw but with the added palm lock, I can see that it's much more effective this way.

I love this technique. Question: Why hold it out in front of his body, where he could potentially reach over with his other hand and fight it, rather than tuck it into his rib cage?

Tons of great tips in this one, both techniques and concepts, and demonstrated very well.

At 2:00,, when showing how to free the hand, he said, "There's a term that we use, fill the..." I couldn't quite catch it.

This is an ignorant question as I don't train BJJ, but in the knee on belly it seems like a lot of your weight is forward. Couldn't the bottom buy pitch you over?

Thanks very much. Great reminder about the importance of kuzushi in every technique.

NIce, than you. You don't often see standing chokes  though I've seen MMA fighters doing them against the wall of the cage.

This one was an eye opener for me. It starts almost exactly as if you're going to do kote gaeshi. I've noticed that so many techniques start with the same hand position, which is brilliant. Reminds me of how GSP used to start off every combo with a jab and a duck, so his opponents never knew what was coming next.

I'm excited to see this seriers. I know a few basic gun disarms but I look forward to learning from someone who has worked in this field.
