White Belt · Guard → Submissions
A five-second micro-lesson showing only the start of the armbar attack from closed guard: Deivid (black gi, on his back) breaks his partner's posture, takes a two-on-one grip on one arm, and starts the leg climb. The clip ends there — the finish is not shown.
The partner in the blue gi kneels inside Deivid's closed guard, sitting up tall with both hands posted on Deivid's chest/stomach — full posture, which is what has to be broken first.
Deivid reaches both hands up toward the partner's arms, then drives up onto his elbow in a fast motion; the partner folds forward as his posture collapses toward the mat.
Up on his elbow and facing the now-bent-over partner, Deivid holds the partner's near arm with both of his hands — a two-on-one grip — keeping the arm pinned close.
Back down on the mat, Deivid keeps both hands on the trapped arm, pulled across in front of him, and his legs begin climbing — one leg working up over the partner's back with the foot high. The clip cuts off at this point.
