Back Control Escape when Opponent Has Cross Collar Grips (Intermediate)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches an escape from the back control. In this technique, Lucas goes into detail on escaping when the opponent has the back control, with hooks in and cross collar grips. She shows how to control the opponent’s arms to prevent the collar choke. He then shows how to bridge back and slide to the side to work on the escape. Once he is off to the side, he uses his feet as hooks to lift the opponent’s legs off. From here, Lucas keeps bridging and escapes to the opponent’s side.
