List of submission techniques

List of submission techniques used in ground fighting systems.

Whether it is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Grappling, Sambo, Combat Submission Grappling, etc. all these systems or arts of fighting on the ground use these techniques to subdue the opponent.

Submissions, Fighting Techniques and Reverse, this is a list of the main techniques in alphabetical order from A to Z.

Some will definitely miss but don’t worry that you already have so much to work with these that you won’t miss one or two techniques you don’t find on this list.

Consider that you must learn to apply all these techniques from different positions, you must learn the defenses from these attacks (escape), the reverses, and the strategies to be able to effectively apply these techniques to an opponent who does not want to be leveraged.

Clearly based on the fact of practicing with the Gi or No-Gi requires the necessary adaptations and also the possibility of using the Gi to perform control techniques and submission techniques.
