The Shrimp (i.e. Hip Escape) is one of the most fundamental moves in BJJ and probably one of the first ones you’ll learn. But that doesn’t mean you have to keep doing it the way you’ve been doing it from the beginning.
The Hip Escape, otherwise known as the “Shrimp”, is one of the most fundamental moves you’ll learn in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. It’s an absolutely essential technique; one that will enable you to escape the most difficult of positions throughout your journey to black belt – and beyond.
However, it’s rare to see people who have truly “perfected” the Shrimp, even among the higher belts. And that’s because their body mechanics are off.
For example, here’s an another, fantastic way to go about the Shrimp. Todd Margolis demonstrates on the video below:
