Tie Up to Duck Under to Leg Switch Takedown (Intermediate)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches how to take the opponent down after escaping a tie up. Lucas and the opponent are standing and get in the tie up positions. Lucas pushes the elbow up as he ducks under the arm and controls the opponent by the shoulder and leg. He then switches to controlling the waist from behind. Lucas now takes the opponent down by switching his leg base and blocking the far side leg as he pulls the opponent back. From here, depending on the opponent’s reaction, Lucas can go to the side control or back take.
