Brian Glick Climbing the Jiu-Jitsu Ladder - The Art of the Climb pt.4

(This is part 4 of 4)

With back control secured, maybe you’ve had some fun choking out a few resistant training partners. But let’s mix things up. In this technique, Brian takes a crowd favorite, the omoplata, and flips it into a classic Kimura trap. As your opponent scrambles to counter, Brian’s approach leads them right into a shoulder lock. It’s almost polite, in a way, letting them think they’re getting out before you finish it off with a Kimura. It’s the perfect bait-and-switch, a one-two punch that only jiu-jitsu could deliver.
