Sweep from 50/50 Guard
3 Part Lesson -- Marcelo see-saws with his partner from 50/50: Starting from an Open Guard, sling yourself onto the opponent's lead leg into the 50/50 leg entanglement. Raise your hips up high to knock your opponent back for the sweep. Practice going back and forth with your partner and working on pinning the opponent down after arriving on top. [01:42] You may need to make a grip on your opponent's belt to help control your positioning during the sweep; come up onto your elbow in a manner akin to a Technical Stand-Up. [03:52] Remove your hips out from underneath your opponent with a Hip-Escape to help gain the leverage for the sweep. Be careful not to place your leg underneath your opponent's body when you knock them back and come up on top.
