| You're on your back with your opponent between your legs, preparing to punch you in the face. | As your opponent punches at your face with his right hand, parry his blow with your left hand and raise your right leg above his left shoulder. |
 |
 |
| Grab your opponent's head with your left hand and pull him towards you. This step may not be necessary because his momentum may bring him far enough forward without your help. | Reach your right arm to the right side of his neck and grab your own right pant leg. |
 |
 |
| If you can't reach your pant leg, you can grab your foot or ankle instead. | Holding your pant leg, move your arm as if doing a bicep curl with a dumbbell. This cuts off the flow of blood to the head, causing your opponent to lose consciousness. |
Practice repeatedly until you can work the technique at full speed. Let your opponent go when he acknowledges the choke. If you hold the choke, your partner will lose consciousness. If you hold it longer, you could seriously harm your opponent. Be careful.
