leg lock Lab

In Jiu-Jitsu, there are two broad categories of submissions: chokes and joint locks. Regarding joint locks, new BJJ practitioners can target the upper-body joints-shoulders, elbows, and wrists. But advanced students can also target lower body joints-knees and ankles-forcing their opponent to tap-out. Every Tuesday afternoon and Thursday evening we have an hour of instruction on leg locks.

A NORMAL LEG LOCK CLASS INCLUDES:

• Set-ups and entries
• Leg entanglements
• Knee bars and compressions
• Toe holds
• Straight foot locks
• Heel hooks

Leg locks are advanced Jiu-Jitsu techniques, but with practice your self-defense knowledge will be complete.

*The leg lock class is only available to United Legion Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu students. We don’t accept visitors, drop-ins, or mat fees for this specific class. Also, please keep in mind the uniform for this class is No-Gi.
