Fake Single Leg to Guard Pass Transition (Advanced)

Professor Lucas Lepri demonstrates how to use a fake single leg entry to set up a pass when an opponent backsteps to defend. By faking the initial takedown, Professor Lucas forces a reaction that allows the knee to be placed between the opponent's legs to maintain constant pressure. If balance is lost during the entry, the focus shifts to keeping the legs trapped and moving toward a North-South position to prevent the opponent from recovering their guard. This strategy ensures that even if the initial shot is defended, the transition leads to dominant side control or a back-side transition on the opposite side.
