About this position

A fundamental pin where you are chest-to-chest with your opponent, perpendicular to their body, with no legs entangled. Side control is the most common position reached after passing guard. From here you can transition to mount, knee on belly, north-south, or attack with kimuras, americanas, and chokes.
