Stephan Kesting from http://www.grapplearts.tv shares a simple idea that, used correctly, will make it MUCH harder for your opponent to pass your guard
I enjoy your vids, i think the “baseball grip” on the wrist works better to strip a collar grip and its less fiddly too “as taught by Marcelo Garcia” :)
@HDMovieScenes A chop is simply that, a chop. If it is done "specifically" to prevent or escape your opponent's grip, it should be fine. Obviously you can't just whack your opponent across the arm for any other reason.
This a good tech for those guys who don't have a lot of skill but they just hold for dear life and try to pass your guard lol these are the best grappling clips on the net!
Gi is very important in a real life situation. I mean lets say that a guy has a big coat on or a hoodie on the street. Those grips and chokes that you learned with Gi will come in handy. Even a long sleeve shirt can be useful in a real fight if you practice with the Gi. I need more Gi practice myself - but trust me it is useful.
Great advice, but what do you do when your opponent grabs you with both hands at the same time?

is the chop at 2:30 considered a strike?

He changed my approach on what my mentality should be when I roll around and I don't even use a gi. Great teacher
