INSIGHT

Dominant Angles in Positioning

  • Dominant angles give you positional advantage by preventing opponents from effectively attacking or defending.
  • Positions like back mount show how facing away limits opponents' options.
INSIGHT

Facing Opponent Limits Their Power

  • If your opponent cannot face you, they are very inhibited in attack or defense.
  • Dominant angles often mean opponents cannot directly face you, reducing their effectiveness.
ADVICE

Isolate and Practice Takedowns

  • To get comfortable with takedowns, isolate and practice throws like judo separately.
  • Focus on mastering a few fundamental throws rather than many to improve takedown skills.
