You are being choked from the front by your opponent.	Reach your left arm under your opponent's right arm and your right arm over your opponent's left arm. Grab your left wrist.
Crank your arms clockwise, pulling your opponent off balance.	If your opponent tries to maintain his grip, he will be pulled further off balance until his grip is broken.
After breaking your opponent's grip, you are in a position to finish with an elbow or any other appropriate technique.

Remember, this technique is only one of a nearly endless combinations of various moves which could be employed in this situation. Practice this for efficiency and effectiveness with a partner. Then experiment with other techniques to counter the two handed front choke. You probably already have some, so try to create some new ones. Send us your ideas and you may be on Move of the Week.
