Step Over Kimura

Still frame from the Step Over Kimura videoPlay: Step Over Kimura

When your opponent defends the Kimura by grabbing his shorts, belt, hip, or inner thigh, it is going to be difficult to get the clean 9-point Kimura I like to go for. So we have to adjust our position and move into the Step Over Kimura.

This Kimura gives us a better angle to break grips, and opens up a world of possibilities.
