Watch As Kazushi Sakuraba - Perhaps The Most Famous MMA Fighter Of All Time - Reveals For The First Time: All Of The Kimura & Arm Destruction Secrets That Built His Legacy. This Masterclass Between Saku & Grappling Icons Bernardo Faria & Craig Jones Can’t Be Missed

For the first time ever, Japanese MMA legend Kazushi Sakuraba is teaching all of the moves that he has learned, invented, and perfected in his lifetime in grappling and martial arts, focusing on the submission threats that made him a household name in fight sports.

With joint locks from all angles and an entire submission game that he made for himself, he is a grappling coach like none other, showing moves that until now have been only for him.

With this mix of BJJ, catch wrestling, aikido, and even some pro wrestling thrown in, the Sakuraba style has always been about hunting for the finish and attacking from everywhere, and now with this debut instructional series, you can study what has worked so well for this MMA pioneer.

We flew out to Japan for the honor of shooting with Sakuraba, with BJJ Fanatics favorite Craig Jones, and Kazushi didn’t disappoint! Across all four volumes, there are innovative and effective ways to get the tap from an opponent who didn’t even realize he was in trouble!

We were blown away from Sakuraba’s teaching, and his focus on the details that made the moves his own. Even his world famous kimura, the very first move on the series, is taking one of the oldest moves in grappling and changing the pressure and angles in ways that Sakuraba’s opponents never saw it coming until it was too late. Now you too can go from bad position to fight-ending submission just like one of the best to ever compete in PRIDE FC.

Sakuraba first rose to international acclaim as the mysterious grappler with no jiu-jitsu background who was still able to win and even submit some of the most famous Jiu Jitsu fighters and wrestlers in the UFC and Pride.

The whole BJJ world was stunned that someone without a background in the gentle art was attacking Kimuras and joint locks like a pro black belt, but he was doing it so differently that the regular defenses weren’t working! To this day, people have been trying to figure out exactly what made Sakuraba so special and now you can see those same techniques that he made work against some of the best!

Every volume of this series has moves that are battle-tested and ready for live action, so you can always have a few tricks up your sleeve when you need them.

In no-gi grappling, one of the hardest things to do can be getting control long enough to get the submission. In this series, Sakuraba is able to solve all of this with some really innovative tricks using leverage and with pressure points, so he is always creating reactions in his opponent, reactions that he can use to get the tap.

He is a true master of the kimura, and the entries, combinations, and finishes he shows will blow your mind in how effective, simple, and different they are than what anyone else is doing. By combining the kimura with the exact right places to pressure in, along with some of the sneakiest armbars and wrist locks we’ve ever seen, this might be the most diverse kimura game on the planet, and now it can be all yours!

It’s rare to meet a true innovator like Kazushi, a man who found his way through grappling by experimenting and finding his own path to what works. Because of this really unique approach, and from years of now cross training his systems against some of the best from BJJ, judo, wrestling, and any style he can, he knows that every move shown here is a winner, with enough detail and explanation that you can fold these secrets right into your game.

Learn The Kimura From One Of The Masters Of The Move, And Add Dozens Of Submissions To Your Game!


When it comes to getting the kimura trap, Kazushi Sakuraba is one of the best of all time. He’s been able to trap and tap some of the best of his generation by constantly focusing on attacking submissions, and using the little changes that he created that make every move as dangerous as it is hard to defend. Starting standing, he shows us the signature standing kimura that he made famous, before we dive deep into a masterclass. Bernardo and Craig Jones, two of the best technicians in BJJ already, go deep into exactly what he does to get the lock and how he handles any problems in the submission, always working to the tap. Even in positions that black belts like Craig and Bernardo felt safe, Sakuraba was able to change one little detail and get the immediate tap. This is one of the most expansive and technical breakdowns of the kimura trap that we have ever seen, and it’s sure to add to your game immediately.

Sakuraba is a lot more than just an incredible kimura, he is also one of the most dangerous and tricky fighters alive! He goes deep into his technical knowledge and shows us some wicked wrist locks and armbars from angles we’d never seen before. From armbar finishes that use leverage and pressure on the right muscles at the right time, to ways to grip a wrist lock that turn it from a ow percentage move to a can’t miss attack, he’s got tricks from everywhere.
