Brazilian jiu jitsu has a variety of guards but one every beginner has heard of is open guard. Open guard is perhaps not the easiest to come into as a beginner as it doesn’t dictate certified points of contact by default. Still there are some concepts and ideas that could help shape your game on a whole new level.
The Spider Guard is a wonderful guard to learn and use in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu… If nothing else, then because of the control it provides and the plethora of submissions you can hit from it!
Here is a neat Armbar setup from Spider Guard – that will have your training partners tapping in no time!
