Side Control Escape to Double Under Defense (Advanced)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches how to escape from the side control position when the opponent controls the hip. He then shows how to defend from the double under. Lucas bridges so he can slide his inside arm under the opponent’s arm to block him. The opponent applies pressure and Lucas uses it to push the opponent away and spins around to try and recompose the guard. The opponent gets the double under on Lucas. Lucas defends by gripping the opponent’s back and locking his elbows in. From here, Lucas can work on a submission or transition to a better position.
