TakedownIntermediateGiNo-Gi

Inside trip

A clinch takedown: your leg goes between theirs, catches one leg from the inside, and your chest pressure tips them backward. It pairs well with a body lock or an underhook.

Key steps

  1. Get to the clinch with an underhook or a body lock and pull them close.
  2. Step your leg between theirs and hook it behind one of their legs from the inside.
  3. Lift the hooked leg off the mat as you drive your chest into theirs.
  4. Keep driving forward until they fall back, then follow them down to the top.

Key details

  • Driving forward while you hook is what takes them down; a hook alone gives them time to hop.
  • Staying chest to chest keeps your weight over them, so you land on top.
