Butterfly Guard Attack / Sweep Escape to Side Control (Intermediate)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches how to escape and prevent the opponent from sweeping or attacking when they have the butterfly guard. The opponent has the butterfly guard on Lucas and starts to elevate him. Lucas maintains his balance. He starts to escape by lowering one knee and immediately circles that leg out. Lucas slides that knee to the other side and then under hooks the opponent. From here, he passes to the side control position.
