Footlock Escape → Kneebar Escape
2 Part Lesson — Marcelo escapes from leglocks: [I] If your opponent breaks your grip on his sleeve and seizes the opportunity to attack your exposed foot, quickly kick off his control before he can secure his attack. If he drops down for a knee bar, literally kick his butt until your leg is free from the threat. [II] The timing of your counter to your opponent's entry onto a leglock depends entirely on the origin of his position; if on his back, he will have to reach and invert. Press away his hips and sprawl your leg away from his arms. If turtled on his knees, he can roll under with momentum; again, address his hips and continue to post urgently against his legs. If he rolls from standing in a Back Bodylock, immediately push away his hips and sprawl your leg away from the danger. If caught deeply, begin kicking his legs to free your knee from his leg scissors.
