The “Octopus To Front Headlock” Is The Surprise-Technique For Your Training Partners

Ever felt the need to practice some unusual setups and techniques? We’re certain you did, but we’re also sure that you tried out some really low percentage moves; ones that look fancy, but that can hardly ever be done in a live roll. So, what you need is a position that your opponents won’t expect – but from which you can branch out different attacks as well.
For that reason, feel free to enter the Octopus Guard!

This guard is a rather versatile one, and you can go for predominantly from Closed and Half Guard. In this case, we’ll take a brief look at how you can set it up from Closed Guard – both in No Gi and Gi – and take someone’s back from it.

Look, if you want to continue improving in Jiu-Jitsu… You’ve got to try out unorthodox positions and setups from time to time – as they may prove to be extremely useful for your game.

For instance, the Octopus position – shown by Craig Jones on the video below – can lead to many great attacking options, such as the Front Headlock and similar.
Take a look at it and decide if it’s the right choice for you:
