Jump into the highest-intent flows: guard basics, a first submission, and connected positions.
Guard positions
Closed Guard
bottomThe foundational bottom position where you control your opponent by locking your ankles behind their back. Closed guard limits your opponent's posture and mobility while giving you access to sweeps, submissions, and transitions. It is the first guard most practitioners learn.
Half Guard
bottomYou are on bottom with one of your opponent's legs trapped between yours. Half guard is a versatile position offering underhook battles, knee shield frames, and sweeping opportunities. Modern half guard is an offensive weapon, not just a defensive fallback.
Open Guard
bottomA broad category of guard positions where your legs are not locked around the opponent. You use your feet, knees, and grips to create frames and maintain distance. Open guard is highly dynamic and serves as a hub connecting many specialized guards.
