Jiu-Jitsu Takedowns for People Who Suck at Takedowns

Jiu-Jitsu Takedowns for People Who Suck at Takedowns

A Gracie Jiu-Jitsu black belt under Royce Gracie, Eli Knight shows some great takedowns for those that don’t practise much stand up.

These are some takedowns that I personally feel don’t require you to have a ton of Judo or Wrestling proficiency. I have hit these takedowns on people that have much better takedown ability than I do, but because of the nature of how these are set up and executed, they are difficult to stop.

It should go without saying that these are obviously for a sportive context, but there are elements as always that are applicable to beyond just sport competition.
