Zero dislikes because everyone hates being in bottom side control

What a better way to start your Sunday with some good tips and knowledge from this channel.

"Understand that I have one goal..." Channeling John Danaher now! Great video again thanks.

Every time I see this charismatic so of a gun I know I'm about to learn something great!

Really appreciate your teachings professor Tom. You're knowledgeable, skilled and seem like a really nice guy.👍

I was just rewatching a bunch of your fundamental videos, perfect timing thanks mate 😘

First time I see those reverse from side control, I need to try it lol

This is the best Jiu Jitsu channel on KZread

this is deff good for us bigger guys getting stuck

Thank you again coach Tom, that cheeky last scape loved it! OSS!

Youre a great coach! The concepts make perfect sense

Thanks for this video. As a new WB I’ve been finding myself stuck in side control often

Thanks for sharing Professor Tom. All the best Sir.

Legend! I needed this today

Some great side control defense fundamentals, and a beautiful sweep at the end! Thanks, guys!

I am a beginner to jj/grappling and my teacher just began teaching me the basic side control escape - and your video of the escape is an excellent supplement to my lessons. Thanks for making it so understandable to a newcomer.

Thank you for this, Professor! Excited to try these escapes tonight in class.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge! You are an excellent communicator and instructor

Thanks coach. Ive connected with your coaching style more than anyone else I’ve found online yet. That’s why I bought your blue belt instructional! Great stuff! I hope to train with you fellas when I visit Australia. Thanks for what you do my friend.

Came across these looking shin on shin stuff, excellent series of videos. Love them!

Thank you Professor Tom! Your videos are game changers each one.

Really enjoy these videos from Professor Tom. Very valuable information for a new white belt!

This is an awesome birthday present for me this morning! Escaping side control has been on my mind a lot lately, and your instructionals are always concise and enlightening. Thanks Professor Tom! That reversal is so sick, by the way. Osu!

Excellent content, just keeping my game sharper, thank you sir.

Thank you professor Tom🙏🙏🙏 for this great lesson.

By far one of the most helpful bjj channels out there.. Precise, clear and effective techniques, thanks Tom!

Great video! Can't wait to try these!

Cheers Prof Tom 👍 love the way you explain things.

Thank you for these techniques. Very helpful

Brilliant !! Love your teaching Tom !!

Still loving on you guys from Alabama! Coach Tom You da Man!

Great videos! I come from a wrestling background and am in day four of my BJJ training. I find these videos immensely helpful for my mental preparation before hitting the mats. Thank you for taking the time to share.

Ayo! Side control weeks at the academy right now. Perfect timing :)

Thanks a lot I see all your videos you explain well and also learn from you this is great! Waiting for more videos thank you very much

This is an outstanding video. Thank you!

I am shocked.. what an exceptional escape. Good on you mate!! One of the best channels on YT for sure. Cheers

Good stuff bro, thank you !

Class as usual

Awesome stuff. Would enjoy your ideas on how to deal with low side control/door stop side control as well!

Love your style and articulation. Thank you

Every time I watch a video I come away with some GOLD and then me and my wife practice and she appreciates it so much. I have about a good 60+ pounds on my wife and she struggles doing some moves to me, but then she goes to class and damn near masters that move! Thanks!

You’re a good coach You explain easy and well and I try to practice thing what you gave us Especially for beginners Thank you!

thx Prof Tom!☆☆☆

Thanks again for another great technique! This happened to me last Wednesday at No Go-his side control was too good so I kept getting stuck, leading him to take my back. I’ll be using this next class 😈😈 thanks Tom!!

top bloke!

Appreciate this sir

I have watched many youtube videos about side control scape, but none of them have talked about those details. Thanks a lot!

These are awesome! Thx

This dude is awesome

Thank you so much for this video I`m a blue belt who is stocky and strong, so I get to roll with the giants most of the time, and the details shared here helped me remember what I needed to do when in bottom side control against a bigger and stronger opponent of equal skill. I went from being the victim to being much better prepared to reverse the position against them. You have some of the best BJJ content on YT. Keep it up, Professor!

This is honestly one of the best videos on side control that I've seen. Thank you very much Professor Tom!

Excellent! Thank you!

Man I love your videos. I just finished my 2nd BJJ class ever now about to head to my 3rd and your videos are so insightful. Definitely want to try some of these cool moves

Thanks for sharing your knowledge! Gracias por compartir tus conocimientos 🤙 OSS!!

Thank you big dog your attitude is great always reminds me to keep going no matter what !! Jui Jitsu for life Honda For Life

Excelent video. Thanks a lot for all the explanations in diferent cenarios. Very, very good.

loving the details here Tom, any chance of coming to Sydney for a few seminars this year?

So many good BJJ channels on youtube but this has become my favourite, thanks mate :)

Awesome! I love your content sir. Curious if you could maybe do a video covering knee on belly escapes? There’s a particular student at my gym who sort of defaults to knee on belly from side control whenever I (or someone else) builds good frames on him.

Another awesome video. I'm only four weeks into by bjj journey (3 times/week) and have already used a few techniques I've watched here. I'll be drilling these tomorrow before class. Is there not a patreon for this channel? I think there used to be. I'd love to buy coach Tom 'a coffee' - it would be a bargain for this quality content.

Earnt a subscriber!

Great video coach! Could you please do a video on ground and pound too? And overall more MMA related stuff? appreciated coach

I really appreciate this video, amazing tips and really was helpful, I'm new just started bjj 2 months ago and I'm loving it, I think I found my calling in life lol.. thanks again! Love from Egypt

Nice thank you! Knee to elbow!

I managed to fail the ´rainy day` escape and ended up doing a rolling Ude gatame instead, i guess that works to. Thanks Prof Tom.

Pretty sure none of my team mates have discovered this channel and I don't intend on telling them about it 🤣 best online instructor by a mile

Awesome shit man! 3 months into grappling having trouble in side control, I'm about to try this out man. It would be cool if you could share some tips on what to do when my partner has kesa gatame on me. Thanks dude and keep it coming its awesome!!!!

Hey, man! I'm about a month and half in and I highly recommend you check out some of his older videos. He has tons of good stuff on Kesa Gatame. I recommend you watch the Kesa Gatame attack system before you learn the escapes, because It helped me a LOT to know how my partner might attack me while I'm trying to escape. Have fun!

Can you do a video on how to control the person on bottom when they have underhooks in side control? Also that last technique looks great,cant wait to start drilling it. Thanks.

Too good asusual

5:49 professor da fuqq xD. Anyway great vid😀

@The Grappling Academy do you sell those rashguards??? they are awesome!!!!

thanks for the tips seriously. Been a striker since i was a kid and really thought it was about time i got good at grappling, never wanted to feel THAT unsafe if a fight happened and it ended the ground. I am a 2 stripe white belt now and needless to say it feels like i have no idea what am doing partly because almost any gym ive been at (been to so many due to travelling a lot, uk, sweden, cyprus..), i almost never gotten coached. It's like the coaches just teach 3 techniques, ill be lucky if they come over to explain some details to me and then during rolling they will just be watching the 10-20 students with minimal advise whatsoever. Then i feel like am bothering when i ask ppl to explain what they did to me after rolling n stuff. So yeah, when u say stuff it just clicks and makes it easier to understand and to remember.

Watching this in the Bathroom as I get ready to go to class haha

Thank you coach Tom. I am a small guy but quite strong so I guess I might be able to surprise my opponents with two explosive moves of you showed here. But as I got this a lot, I can almost certain they will say "you're using too much strength, jujitsu is about technique!!" what should be my reply to them ?

Thank you a lot, i am a rookie, you help me a l It, 🙌

Coach Tom I really thank you for this side control vid. I’ve been to three different Academies and was never shown this. You definitely should be instructor of the year. The fundamentals are most important. Everything else builds off of them. Much thanks again! Peace

I always get smashed and stuck in Side Mount. I have had good success getting out of mount against the lower belts. Side mount is a hell for me

Are you also showing how to get out of a really tight side control

Nice! We'll be in Melbourne this coming April and I'll be looking for a BJJ school to train at that allows drop ins with a drop fee. Any suggestions?

What's to keep your opponent from basing out with the arm that isn't being pinched when you try to roll him?

Is it possible to buy any of your rashgaurds?

I noticed at 7:26 that your hands stay on the face throughout the roll and at 7:39, your student instead locks your arm with his arm. Any differences? Is one of them better than the other? Thanks for your videos, one of my go-to channels for learning!

Stuff the face, I love it ! 💪

Coach Tom, how can I buy a short sleeve rash guard from your Academy with Team South on it?

We only sell via tee spring in the video link. Check out the awesome t shirts! No rashguards unfortunately as we cannot ship and source them cost effectively to do this globally.

Does this work with big people, I wanna know bc I'm 17 and in an adult class in jiu jitsu

Wait, did you design the rashguards to match your tattoo's color, or is it the other way around?

Good question...

I wonder if that 05:35 would work

So nobody is going to talk about the thumbnail? Either somebody's been decapitated or they'll one hell of a contortionist.

Absolutely brilliant

Excellent. Thank you!
