STEPHEN R. KOEPFER: On behalf of Expert Village, my name is Stephen Koepfer of New York Combat Sambo in New York City, and today we're going to show you Sambo combinations. Okay, this next Sambo combination again is going to involve a strike and a throw and we're going to start from a grip, and we're going to do a single-leg shoot after a shoot entrance, subsequent to an elbow strike to your opponent's face. So, we have the grip, he's making it difficult for me to get into his legs, I'm going to go with the overhand motion but I'm going to follow through with an elbow here, continue my arm down to his leg where I'll do an ankle pick, drive my shoulder against his knee into a Single Leg Takedown. Again, continuous motion throughout: strike, entrance, takedown, elbow, down into a single leg. From here it's very important; if you don't want to get caught in his half guard, you control this leg and pass to the side position where you have control over him.
