Grounding a Standing Opponent to Take the Back
2m 5s
When you’re standing and are able to get a claw or a body-lock, the best way to take the back is to get your opponent’s hands or hips to the mat before anything else. There are a few ways this can be accomplished: by grabbing the hip and moving in a circular motion, by putting your hips in and lifting your opponent, or by using a broomstick technique to disrupt balance and base and allow you to sit on the mat.
