Hello! My name is Marc Zee. I’m from Arizona Center of mixed martial arts. I’m here on behalf of expertvillage.com. I’m here to demonstrate the kimura. The kimura is a shoulder lock used in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Go ahead guys. Okay, the guy in the bottom is utilizing what is called the guard. The guard is a position that the bottom person can attack. He can utilize a various number of submissions, such as arm bars, chokes and kimuras. Today what we’re going to demonstrate is a kimura, a shoulder lock. The guy at the bottom for some reason plants his hand on the mat or someplace where he can grab onto his wrist. The bottom guy then reaches around the elbow, the outside of the elbow, grabs his own wrist, bends the elbow to a 90 degree angle, and brings it behind his back. One more time. The guy on top plants his hand, he grabs the wrist, he reaches around the elbow, grabs his own wrist, brings it to a 90 degree angle, and he brings his leg to the middle of his back so the can’t front roll. If he front rolls out of this, the leg comes out front roll out as an escape. Okay, one more time. Okay the kimura, he grabs onto his wrist, reaches around the outside of the elbow to grab his own wrist. He brings the arm to a 90 degree angle, brings his leg across the middle of his back, then he wrenches the wrist all the way to the back at a 90 degree angle till he finishes the tap. That is a kimura.
I AM NOT TRAINING RIGHT NOW DUE TO A FOOT INJURY SO I HAVE TIME ON MY HANDS. I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT THIS DEMONSTRATION IS RIGHT ON. THE THING THAT I LIKE ABOUT YOUR TEACHINGS IS THAT YOU USE THE VERBAGE UNTIL THEY TAP BECAUSE THEIR IS A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT JUST WANT TO LEARN THIS ART JUST SO THEY CAN SAY THEY CAN HURT PEOPLE AND THEY DO NOT KNOW IT IS NOT TO HURT ANYONE IT IS SELF DEFENSE.
