Pressure Passing - Breaking the Spirit of the Guard

In addition to the Double Underhooks Pass, Master Sauer's approach to pressure passing is a game-changer. Pressure passing involves applying weight and pressure on the opponent, wearing them down both physically and mentally. By immobilizing their legs, preventing hip movement, and exerting control with superior positioning, pressure passing creates a sense of despair in the bottom player. Master Sauer teaches the secrets of pressure passing, enabling practitioners to pass guards effortlessly, even against skilled opponents.

The Submissions - Surprising Your Opponent

A successful guard pass opens up opportunities for submitting your opponent. Master Sauer believes that submissions from the guard pass are the key to maintaining a dominant position or ending a match efficiently. By controlling the upper body and isolating an opponent's limbs, the top player can transition into various submissions that catch their opponent off guard.

The Armbar - A Classic Submission

Among the arsenal of submissions from the guard pass, the armbar remains a classic and highly effective technique. With precise positioning and control, Master Sauer demonstrates how to transition from the guard pass to securing an armbar. By utilizing leverage and body positioning, he teaches the finer details that increase the success rate and prevent any potential escapes.

The Kimura - Manipulating Your Opponent's Shoulder Joint

Another powerful submission that Master Sauer emphasizes from the guard pass is the Kimura. By controlling an opponent's wrist and shoulder, he demonstrates how to manipulate their shoulder joint, applying leverage that can lead to a submission or a dominant position. The Kimura is a versatile technique that can be applied from various positions, making it a valuable tool in a practitioner's arsenal.

Mastering the guard pass and its submissions is a crucial aspect of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Through the teachings of Master Sauer, practitioners can unlock the secrets to navigate through the guard effectively and secure submissions that surprise their opponents. By understanding the nuances of guard passing and implementing the techniques taught by Master Sauer, one can elevate their BJJ game to new heights.
