Takedown 1:

This takedown is known from Ju-Jutsu/Jiu-Jitsu styles, its where you break your opponents balance and afterwards sweeps his leg…

This one is where you jump up and try to take your opponent down in the guard it has 3 outcomes (A, B and C)……

A:

This is where you jump up and succed in taking your opponent down with you in the guard:

B:

This one is where you dont succed in getting your opponent in the guard, but he keeps standing there with you around him….

C:

This one is where you have to much speed in your takedown and you end with your opponent in the mount….

This one is where you let your self fall backwards with your opponent over your leg and your elbow hitting his Solar Plexus, when landing…..
This can also be used as a counter as a grab around the neck…

Note: Remember that if you imagine a triangle in front and behind your opponent (with the tips away from him). Then if you bring his head or arms to the tip of either of these triangle, then it will break his balance…..
This knowledge will make you able to better improvise, make new techniques and adapt to a attacker…..
