Theme & Techniques: Guillotine Defense from Guard, Ezekiel Choke from Mount & Half Guard
Guillotine Defense from Guard
Video: Valhalla vs Ryan Hall
This is the best video for this technique. She shows it exactly how we do it and a surprise happens at the end of the video. So be careful when you're on the bottom.
A huge tip that I like when I teach this is to try to push them to their back. Don't wait for them to pull you down with them after you get your hand over their shoulder jump to your feet and take control over how fast they go to their back. Also once they loosen up go back not up. You can hurt your neck if you try to pull upward too hard with your head.
Ezekiel Choke from Mount & Half Guard

I had a lot of success with this technique a while back but don't hit it as much in recent years. It's something that I'll threaten now and again and it will setup other submissions in mount. I probably hit this most often from the half guard pass now. People in general in our school are getting better at defending their neck I think.
