🥋🔒👊 The lapel grip is one of the most powerful tools in Jiu Jitsu. Whether you're aiming to pass or submit, controlling the lapel from the top position can give you a serious advantage.

But it's not just about grabbing onto the fabric - it's about using that grip to control your opponent's movements and limit their options. By restricting their ability to move and defend, you can set up the perfect opportunity to take them down or submit them.

Our Gracie Barra professors emphasize the importance of mastering lapel control from top position. It's a fundamental technique that can take your Jiu Jitsu game to the next level.

So next time you're on the mats, focus on mastering the art of lapel control. You never know - it might just be the key to unlocking your next submission victory! 💪🏆
