Adam "Soul Horse" Song and Cesar Bueno demonstrate a north-south position escape for MMA and BJJ.
The KEY point in any escape from the bottom is to maintain a good frame with your arms, to keep space between your opponent and yourself. If you let him flatten out and crush you, you will be hard pressed to use any escape, while creating this "hole" will allow any number of escapes.
Developing the core strength, flexibility, athleticism, and body awareness to perform the movement with ease will take some time, but once you drill it solo and become proficient at the movement, and master it while practicing in training, as long as you can CREATE YOUR FRAME from the bottom of side control and north-south, this escape and many others will be available for your taking.
Adam Song is the head coach at Ring Lords Vale Tudo, the hardest training mma club in NC, privately training amateur and professional mma fighters 18 yrs. of age and up, in Cary, NC.
