Wow. As a white belt I find myself in this position a lot. Or at least in a position close enough where I can at least try to get there. Instead of the usual rolling in a circle wasting energy and eventually getting passed I have much more to work with! Thanks a bunch!!!

How do you deal with the leg weave smash when your knee is on the hip? He has the option to use his right arm to weave under your left leg and use his right shoulder or chest to smash both of your knees together.

Okay so I hope I can explain this way; but either he puts his head within reach when smashing the knee (I'd go for a guillotine, ninja choke or if he's in the gi any lapel choke). Or I'd look for some form of John Wayne sweep. If you want me to show some stuff send me a DM on instagram

No great question! So they are all forms of half guard. Half guard being every time you have one of your opponents legs trapped. Knee shield and z guard are just different variations/niches within halfguard👊🏼

As techniques evolve and jiujitsu becomes more and more detailed, it is important to distinguish certain techniques. At a high level these details and different approaches do make a difference. I understand where you are coming from, but in sport jiujitsu I disagree. To a non striker a kick is a kick. Why make a difference between a body kick or low kick? Or better yet a low kick and a calf kick? Then beteen a thai low kick or Dutch low kick? Do you see my point?
