Darce Choke

Sneaky No Gi Ezekiel & Darce Choke for BJJ from a Wrestling Cradle

Hey guys so we got a question about an ole wrestling move called the cradle today in the video. Our friend who goes by the name “Left Leg Trump” gets to the cradle position during his BJJ training sessions. But doesn’t know what to do with it. So today I am going to give you some options using the Ezekiel and Darce chokes.

 

For those of you who are in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and have never wrestled before. Let me lay down the basics on the Cradle. It’s primarily a grip between leg and head and is used as an off balancing technique and a pin.

 

The primary position wrestlers use in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu to transition into the cradle is from the turtle position after a sprawl from a takedown.

 

In this video I touch on how I get to the Cradle in Brazilian Jiujitsu and then I go into detail about how I use the position to setup submissions.

I also show how to setup one of my favorite No Gi Ezekiel chokes and how to turn it into a Darce Choke.

 

Both of these are very effective submissions that I tend to favor using in No Gi BJJ. Because of the similarities between No Gi and wrestling.

If you ever find yourself in this position or want some additional setups for chokes in No Gi. Then try these techniques out.
