Sleeve Choke - Another BJJ Technique

Military personnel are highly trained to execute moves and approaches that will incapacitate their opponents, so are those trained in BJJ (Brazilian Jiu Jitsu). This technique is always to make sure that the opponent is in a position where they can't do anything to retaliate. The sleeve choke is a very dominating position and may be very hard to execute in a hand to hand combat situation. However, once you've executed it properly, it guarantees that you have the leverage on the fight.

This method is even adopted in mixed martial arts sports. A variety of this is to make the opponent attempt to escape and as they attempt to escape, they put themselves in a bigger disadvantage.
Preparations for the move will require your opponent to be in a lying position with you on top of them. Then you have to throw punches on his face to force him to turn over which will give you the opening that you are looking for. Once your opponent turns over, then your next move is to prepare to execute the Sleeve chock.

Jiu Jitsu Chokes are considered the best way to immobilize your opponent and bring them into a state of unconsciousness. Once you are trained to do this properly, you can actually apply it in any situation that you get into, whether you're in actual combat, in a street fight or in a competition.
What are the different steps that we should do to execute this move? First, you have to place the fingers of one of your hands inside a sleeve-cuff of the other and hold it real tight. This will make your arms appear like a giant clipper which you will use to choke your opponent. Remember to do this very fast. In case you're not wearing any sleeves, then put a good grip on your other arm with your hand.

The next move is to put your open hand and arm at the back of the head where the grip is stationed over the neck of the opponent. In this position, your opponent's arms should be between your legs or should be covered by your body to avoid them from giving some punches and get away from the move. Once the arms are properly covered, your opponent won't be able to throw a punch that's strong enough to affect you.

Last, drive the elbow across the front of the opponent's neck toward the back. Your arm which is underneath the opponent should be pulling the opponent up. This is like clipping the opponent's neck depriving air passage to the lungs which completes the choke.
