Bear Hug Over the Arms Escape

This defence is Similar to our last defence while grabbed from behind, except that instead of under the arms they come over your arms. We have a number of ways of dealing with this but many involve manipulating your attackers arms or hand to make them let go or to throw them. If they are a lot stronger than you, you may have a hard time making them let go.

This throw just gives you another possible option. Whatever situation you are in will likely dictate which of the techniques to use. In the video below the attacker wraps your arms up in the bear hug and to escape we do an inner winding throw or Uchi-makikomi.




As always is you are looking for more great videos or to learn the wonderful art of jiu-jitsu please check out our web site at www.learn-jiu-jitsu-online.com.
