Guard Pass

A Technique from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
By Cláudio Moreno and Andres Lenta

		GT (guy on top) will pass the guard of GB (guy on bottom). GT takes a grip in the top of the hip, and the other on the gi near the top of the chest of GB.
		GT in base (if you don't have your base, don't stand up) will stand up and
		the grip on the chest will move to the top and inside of the opponent's knee
		...pushing down on the opponent's knee to break the guard
		He will push the knee to the floor,
		and slide his other hand underneath the opposite leg of GB, while dropping to one knee (the same side as the hand that goes under the leg).
		Then GT will get a grip on the collar of the gi with the hand that wrapped under the leg to keep GB from rolling to all fours.
		GT will then close his elbow on the hand that has the grip on the collar, lower his hips, and switch his other grip from the knee to the opposite arm of GB.
		Just the details.
		The final position should be like this. Remeber to use your knee to avoid the hood of the opponent. See the video to see the technique in action.
