2 Part Lesson — Marcelo passes the Half Guard Nogi: [I] Rely on Underhook & Head Control fastened together with a Gable Grip to attach to your opponent when not wearing the kimono; this is the best way to ensure that you do not lose positioning due to the lack of friction between your bodies. Offset your weight to the side and away from your opponent's hips. Place your foot flat on his knee and press your leg out of his Half Guard. [II] If your foot gets caught while trying to pass, weave your toes around his legs based on how he has chosen to interlace his feet; either with a traditional figure-four or reverse variant.
