Front Headlock (Standing Guillotine Choke) Escape | Self Defense

Here Shane teaches 2 different escapes to the "front headlock" or the standing guillotine choke. This is a BJJ submission, but even untrained people know how to do it. Therefor, YOU have to know how to get out of this choke!

Like every other fight technique that I teach, you have the practice this one. Obviously, with a friend or training partner, you're not going 100%, but you should get comfortable with each step and movement. Most of the time, you end up in this position after going for a careless double-leg takedown or trying to "tackle" someone. Gotta protect that neck!

The last "kumari throw" technique will not always work if your opponent is a lot taller than you or if they get the choke in tight before you can stabilize and loosen their arm. Even so that is a better technique than coming around the other side where your opponent could break their hold and put you in a sprawl or clinch position. If the kumari hold does not flip the opponent or put enough pressure on the joint to dislocate you can always sweep the leg or heel stomp their ankle.

I tried the second one and it almost broke my opponents hand

Lol my brother thought it was funny to put me in a headlock.. little did he know that I watched this video ;D I instantly got out of it using the second maneuver in the video.. except I kept the kimura lock on him and he tapped! I win! Lol thank you Shane... I am one step smarter in self defense

[Jemarseg]

Dude, can you make a video about the best counter variation for each 4 basic punches.

[rylandwhitaker]

I like the second one.  That is a slick maneuver.

[mareduardviray]

I don't wanna be rude but I laughed my ass off when I paused 1:36 :')

Love this video, I've been searching for videos on how to choke out a girl. Thanks !

[MrCaptainDerp]

I think a sweeping headbutt from her position at 1:32 would be an effective means to disorientate the opponent for either escape or full mount. Followed by a few punches and a kick to help her get up.

hmmm, I like the idea of the Ude Garami in the escape, I will have to try this out at class and see how this works out.

[steelers]

i was just in this situation yesterday he was 240 im 160 and i was out of energy so i just picked him up a bit and rammed into a wall but this helps alot for future fights

[bennubird]

Good techniques. Thank you Shane and Marie.

[cal]

shane that was a nice flip, how many times your practice that 

[ActiveAdept-xe]

I like the first one better. As even without trying the second one I can see a problem. If they link there hands together braking that hold could be very difficult.

[preachermaiconanastacio-re]

I like how you teach man!!!!
You got the right

[fougeregarantie]

If I was choked like that, my first reflex would be messing up his ribcage with left hooks (also I'm left handed, so easier for me) or even stabbing him if the fight started with knife
