Opening the Closed Guard to Double Under Pass Entry (Fundamentals)

Professor Frederico Silva shows how to open the closed guard and how to get to the double under pass entry. Frederico is in the opponent’s closed guard and is controlling the belt. He pushes on the belt and moves his hips back. One knee is then placed in between the opponent’s legs while the other leg is posted out. Frederico the uses his elbows to open the opponent’s guard. He then reaches underneath both of the opponent’s legs and grips his hands together hugging the legs so he can then work a pass from this position.
