Breaking the Closed Guard and Half Guard to Mount
3 Part Lesson - Paul illustrates how to break open the opponent's Closed Guard using the key component of Jiu-Jitsu, leverage. Following an Under Hook and Head Control to pin the opponent down and force Mount, Paul demonstrates anticipation, another critical element in Jiu-Jitsu. As you advance into Mount, anticipate the opponent's reaction to capture your foot and draw you into Half Guard. As you recognize his intentions, hide your foot and await his return, which turns you into Mount.
