31 Days Of Christmas Submissions: Arm-Bar from Side Mount

As always, we are a giving bunch. What better way to give back during the holidays than a little woman on woman submission series? Amanda and myself will be demonstrating a submission series for the holidays.

Day 1:

Armlock from Side Mount - this is one of my favorite armlock. Primarily because I love side mount, it is a great position for a smaller defender or a woman. You can initiate good pressure and control from this position and create a tight armbar. If you're really nasty, you can overhook the arm and sit back with it. (Warning: Do not tuck the arm during training. You may hurt your partner but for self-defense definitely an option. Be ready for the snap, crackle, pop part.) This is especially effective on red heads but not as effective as the the ginger cross-face. 

Position 1: 

Position 2: Raise the inside arm and bring your knee in tight to the persons body. 

Position 3: 
post on your right forearm and bring your right shin/knee up to the armpit/chest. Pull up on the triceps of the trapped arm and swing the left leg over the face. Placing it up against the side of the neck. Holding on to the the opposite shoulder as you sit down into the armbar pulls the person to you keeping the armbar tight. 









Position 4: Finish the Armbar- sit back into the arm bar ensuring the thumb is facing toward the ceiling or in the opposite direction of the elbow. Ensure you squeeze your knees together as you sit back to keep the armbar tight.
