What Will You Learn?

The Cross Grip Formula provides a unique look at both offensive and defensive gripping, and executing attacks. Instead of using the traditional and common straight grip, learn why the cross grip can be safer, more dynamic, and give you more options. While it is less common, it’s ability to open up attacks is hard to deny. Olympian Matt D’Aquino is here to lay out his formula to mastering the cross grip!

Take your opponent by surprise with this unorthodox system! Typically your opponent will be protecting the typical lapel grip instead of the cross grip. Matt goes over both defending your opponent’s grips, as well as how to obtain the Cross grip. Right from the beginning of Cross Grip Formula, Matt explores how to use multiple gripping options that compliment the cross grip and get to throwing.

Many throws are slightly adapted using the cross grip. Matt covers ouchi, kouchi, and osoto gari variations using the powerful cross grip. What’s even better using the cross grip is seoi nage variations. The former Olympian teaches you ways to link your techniques together and make your approach even more effective.

On top of top-tier throws Matt covers two standing submission series in the standing armbar and kimura. The cross grip not only lends itself to tricky throwing combinations, but also can open up brutal submissions to finish the fight quick! Counter a circling opponent using the cross grip and expose them to Matt’s standing attack series!

To finish the instructional Matt covers some of the dangers of using the Cross Grip Formula. No strategy is foolproof, however Matt sheds some light on common mistakes and weaknesses that can be exploited when using the cross grip. Most importantly Matt covers how to create tempo and get the action flowing in your direction before your opponent has a moment to set up shop!
