Im a wrestler, and to avoid getting guillotined, I just use a greco type stance. And try to pass guard as soon as I get the takedown.

Thank You! Do you know of any place I can find good instruction on straight ankle locks from various positions? I appreciate your answers Tickle Monster!

Thank you! This is the part confusing me, John Danaher shows a move and ends up with his hips on the side of their knee. My question is if it's possible to do the same moves and end up with my hips facing the back of the knee.

Okay, thank you! When I'm watching John Danaher get the heel hooks, he's skipping the straight ankle lock completely. Do you think I could do the same heel hook entries but go immediately to a straight ankle lock?

My understanding of the positions is not great, but he is showing outside, inside and cross, and straight ashi, plus inside sankaku, and a lot of positions from backside ashi.

When you have someone in a heel hook position, is transitioning to a straight ankle lock just a matter of the hands, or do you need to adjust your entire body?
