Open Guard can be a difficult position for many athletes to effectively apply due to the sheer amount of variables. Waiting around for a good guard passer to get started is a surefire way to get your guard passed. So to avoid paralysis by over analysis, Bia cuts through the nonsense to provide you a clear cut method of establishing grips and getting to work!
The World Championship Open Guard System starts off by covering one of Bia’s go to techniques from Open Guard, the Triple Sweep. Here is where you first start to learn the power of the Open Guard, as Bia shifts your perspective towards being offensive from the position instead of waiting for things to happen. The Triple Sweep also has multiple variations to give you a complete approach of attack the moment the fight.
The Open Guard lends itself perfectly to transition into other effective guards, as well as wrestling to your feet from the bottom. Bia covers each aspect extensively. While supine Bia can choose to attack with her Open Guard, or transition to one of her favorite positions, the X Guard. Part 2 covers her favorite transitions and attacks from the X Guard. This valuable addition to your arsenal will keep your opponent off balance and under constant threat of submission!
In part 3, the 9x World Champ covers what to do, and how to react from the Seated Open Guard. Here she provides an ample amount of options including ankle picks, single legs, shin to shin, over head sweeps and MORE! In the final portion of The World Championship Open Guard System, Bia covers what to do when your opponent drops to a knee. This is a common occurrence especially after you develop the killer skills uncovered in the first three parts of the series.
