???? The Roger Gracie Closed Guard System

A precise, compact yet profound approach to closed guard—designed to deliver posture-breaking control, sweep setups, and high-percentage submissions rooted in Roger Gracie’s championship ethos.

???? Course Overview

Roger Gracie—widely regarded as one of the most technical and effective practitioners ever—offers a curriculum centered on efficiency, tight control, and moment-to-moment adaptability. His closed guard is far from static; it’s a launch pad for hostile yet intentional offense, built to dominate postural battles and force mistakes.

???? What You’ll Learn

  • Foundation of Control & Posture Domination
    Essential grips for sleeves and collars, head grip, and posture suppression
    Hip and shoulder leverage to break and maintain opponent posture
    Micro-position shifts to counter attempts at heavy-base pressure
  • High-Percentage Sweep Entries
    Hip-bump variations optimized for grip strength and timing
    Shoulder-snap and pendulum entries with compact rotations
    Flow drills chaining sweep attempts to maintain offensive rhythm
  • Submission Systems & Chaining
    Controlled entries into the armbar and high-percentage triangle
    Kimura link-ins when sweep attempts fail, keeping offensive pressure alive
    Reset options to guard or transition into open butterfly positions
  • Flow-Led Partner Drills
    Compact sequences that connect grips → posture break → sweep/submit
    Reactive triggers for posture rebuilding and timing-based responses
    Live rolling examples reflecting Roger’s control-first mindset

???? Who This Course Is For

This system is ideal for grapplers who:
– Want to build a closed guard game rooted in structure and pressure
