Koshi Guruma

Not much to say about this technique that I haven't said about the other forward throws. This one in particular you want to make sure that you don't push their hips back when you wrap your arm around your neck.
Tripod Escape from Side Control
Video: Bridge Escape vs Side Control, Single Leg vs Side Control It's MG so I had to include it, it's not exactly like we do it but close enough.
The detail that has helped me the most with this technique was to do a little front shrimp before going to the tripod. Otherwise my head was always getting stuck by their knee. So get to the underhook on the far side then bump yourself down a bit. Also tripods are a good exercise that you can practice on your own. Make sure the correct leg is going under the other leg for stability.
Kimura from Side Control

This has been a good setup for me lately. I think that a lot of people feel safe with their hand on the shoulder in the bottom of side control. That can be used to the top person's advantage to kind of trap there, move north/south and then isolate the arm to get the kimura grip. From here the most important part is to keep their upper body from moving as you pry their arm forward and up and then behind their back.
