Mastering Uki Goshi: Half-Hip Throw Techniques

Yesterday in class, I taught my guys the half-hip throw (Uki Goshi), the first thing I now teach, thanks to John Danaher and his brilliant stand-up-to-ground course on BJJ Fanatics.

It’s natural to ask follow-up questions such as whether I stay on the ground, stand up, post throw etc. If you stay, we use what I call the sunbathing lizard, so as not to get rolled. So we now go from clinch lizard to sunbathing lizard in my group.

Please check out the coaching page if you fancy training in an art that goes feet, ground, feet with a Vale Tudo and Lutte attitude.
