berimbolo
The berimbolo is a grappling technique commonly used in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ). It involves transitioning from a seated position to a more advantageous position, often aiming to take the opponent's back. This move is particularly effective against opponents who are standing or in a guard position, allowing the practitioner to create openings for submissions.
This technique is characterized by its fluid motion and reliance on leverage rather than strength. The berimbolo has gained popularity in competitive BJJ, especially among practitioners who focus on the guard game. It showcases the importance of timing and technique in achieving positional dominance.
