The Toreando Pass Drill You Should Be Doing Every Day

The Toreando Pass Drill You Should Be Doing Every Day

The Toreando Pass is one of the first guard passes you learn in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu… And you ought to drill it to perfection.

The toreando is a speed-based pass in BJJ. It is named toreando, also known as the bullfighter pass, as it mimics the movement of a matador misdirecting a bull. The basic premise of the toreando pass is to control the opponent’s legs as you move your body to the opposite.

Although its initial entry is speed-based (since you have to get past the opponent’s legs), you can switch to a more pressure-based approach as you fight to control the hips, arms, and head. This pressure-based finish is effective to get into and maintain a dominant position as you attempt to pin your opponent in side control or mount.

Here’s a simple Toreando drill you should be doing every day, as shown and explained by Fabricio Andrey:
