In this video, we’ll focus on maintaining posture and avoiding sweeps when dealing with sleeve-based guards, such as Spider Guard. The key is to adopt a low, stable squat position to reduce the risk of being off-balanced or swept. By getting low and bringing one leg forward, you can start to neutralize your opponent's control. We’ll also cover effective strategies for breaking grips and passing from this position - the goal is to maintain stability and set up your passes while minimising vulnerability.
