Countering the head push defense vs the over-under pass by Bernardo Faria

I'm so glad you posted this. One of my main frenemies in the brown belt division locally uses this defense to the pass really effectively and I hadn't found a good way to deal with it. Will try for sure.

Hope it helps! If it works for Bernardo on his way to 5 world titles it'll probably work for you too!
 
Nice adjustment, can this work no-gi, if you grab their hip?
 
He showed this when I asked at a seminar last spring, among many other great details. If you get the chance to hit up one of his seminars, I highly recommend. Such a friendly person too.
 
Thank you for sharing this, Stephan. Over under is one of the few passes I actually have some success with.
