Notes
Side Control → North–South → North–South Choke Get to North–South 1. Start in side control with your chest heavy on your opponent. 2. Come up onto your toes. 3. Walk around their head in a half circle while keeping your chest connected. 4. Finish facing their feet with your chest over their upper chest and shoulders. Set Up the Choke 5. Slide one arm under their neck. 6. Keep that arm tight—no space between your armpit and their neck. 7. Control their far shoulder or arm so they can’t turn. 8. Walk your body slightly toward their hip to tighten the position. 9. Drop your shoulder and chest into their neck. 10. Hold steady—don’t squeeze hard with your arms. Let your body position do the work. 11. If it’s not working after a few seconds, adjust your angle instead of squeezing harder. Memory Cue “Chest heavy → walk around the head → face the feet → arm under the neck → stay tight → walk to the hip → drop the shoulder.”
