Mackenzie Dern Teaches How To Pull Off The Rear Naked Choke from Omoplata For BJJ & MMA

 

Mackenzie Dern is one of the most exciting bjj competitors in the world of MMA today. She’s opted to let everyone in on the secrets of her unique sub – the chokoplata aka rnc transition from omoplata that seems to be working in both high level ibjjf and mma!

 

In the past we could observe it against both Michelle Nicolini and one of her MMA opponents.

But Mackenzie Dern herself just offered up a very handy explanation with plenty of details involved.

From the omoplata position it’s crucial to climb while keeping the leg very heavy on top of the shoulder and lock the hip preventing the roll out escape.

If the opponent rolls trying to ease the pressure, roll with making sure to bring the shoulder with you and using the free hand to attack the neck.
