This isn't just a toreando course, it's a complete framework for passing the guard with speed, angles and timing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhether you're facing a seated guard player who keeps putting their feet back on you or an opponent on their back with their knees and hips posted, the toreando serves as a way to get around the legs without getting tangled in them. You'll learn how to force half guard, camp outside, move to shin to shin or north south, and clear frames with knee blocks and wrist snaps.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe toreando works because it keeps you out of your opponent's reach while you control the direction of the exchange.
