BJJ Escapes Directory

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu escapes are the foundation of survival in any fight - the moment where defense becomes offense. Our comprehensive escapes database covers every recovery technique from the fundamental position improvements to advanced reversals that can turn any disadvantage into a dominant position.

Defensive Fundamentals: Survival First

Defensive escapes form the core of BJJ survival skills, teaching you how to prevent submissions while simultaneously improving your position. From basic posture corrections to complex frame creation, these techniques ensure you never get caught in a compromising situation.

Recovery Techniques: Getting Back to Neutral

Recovery escapes focus on returning to a neutral position where you can reassess and continue the fight. These techniques emphasize creating space, breaking posture, and establishing frames that prevent your opponent from maintaining their advantage.

Reversal Opportunities: Turning Defense into Offense

Reversal escapes go beyond mere survival, teaching you to capitalize on your opponent's mistakes and immediately transition from defense to attack. Every escape contains within it the seed of a potential submission or dominant position.
