Master Side Control Escapes — Even Against Bigger, Stronger Opponents
Most people try to explode out of side control and hope for the best. When that fails, they just wait to get submitted. But there's a better way.
I've shown you 4 important concepts that don't rely on strength, speed or flexibility.
But now you need to know what moves go where — so you have an answer to everything.
I've helped over 1,000+ students become escape artists from the bottom of side control.
Side Control Isn't One Position — It's Seven
Each one requires a specific escapes. Do you know them all?
The Problem
Use the wrong escape for the wrong side control and you're stuck — or worse, you give them the submission. Most people only know one or two escapes and try to force them from everywhere. That's why they don't work.
The Good News
If you understand the core concepts, you'll learn every escape faster than you ever thought possible. The principles don't change — only how you apply them.
Imagine This
- Someone pins you in side control and you don't panic — you know exactly what to do
- You escape the 220lb wrestler who usually smashes you — without using any strength
- Your training partner switches to a different side control and you already know the answer
- You get passed but immediately escape and reset to guard — like nothing happened
- Side control becomes a minor inconvenience, not a death sentence
- You go home without that crushing feeling in your ribs
Here's What's Actually Happening
- You get pinned and immediately start panicking
- You explode into an escape, it doesn't work, and now you're exhausted
- They switch positions and you have no idea what to do
- You get submitted then put right back in side control again
- You spend the rest of the round just surviving
- Bigger training partners treat you like a rest round
- You drive home wondering if you're ever going to get better
The difference isn't athleticism. It's not how long you've trained.
It's knowing the right escape for the right situation — and having the reps to hit it without thinking.
This is exactly what the Side Control Deep Dive gives you.
