  • Position of Turtle for Guard Retention

    The turtle position is used to retain the guard. It's normally entered from a seated guard as a result of defending the guard pass. But to effectively sit back into a seated guard from turtle, you must keep the opponent's hips above your shoulder line.

  • Top Position on Opponent's Turtle

    When in the top position of the opponent's turtle, you must attempt to get below the shoulder line to get a dominant position. Otherwise your opponent can sit back into a guard.

    Spider guard is a position where you have double sleeve grip on the opponent and your feet are maintaining the distance on the opponent's hips, thighs or biceps.
