Guard Pull to Reverse De La Riva to Single Leg Takedown (Intermediate)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches how to take the opponent down using the single leg, after guard pulling and using the reverse de la riva. Lucas starts standing up controlling both of the opponent's wrists. He then moves in to the reverse de la riva. The opponent moves in and applies pressure in an attempt to defend. Lucas uses his outside foot to push the opponent on the hip while still maintaining his reverse de la riva hook. As he pushes, this creates space and pushes the opponent away. As the opponent is pushed away, Lucas immediately sits up and grabs the near side leg. He stands up and raises the leg. Once he has a leg in the air, he then taps the back of the opposite leg with his hand and takes the opponent down.
