Rolling Kneebar Clip

As bizarre as it sounds today, there was a time when people actually professed the notion that "kneebars don't work." There were a couple of reasons for this:

1.) The instructor had no clue as to how to perform a kneebar
2.) The instructor felt that knee injuries would drive off students.

There really is nothing wrong with avoiding teaching kneelocks based on either of these two reasons but to completely LIE about whether or not the locks worked was simply inexcusable yet endemic during the early days of BJJ in the USA.

One of the more underrated kneebars is the rolling kneebar from a standing position and this little Youtube Clip provides a look into the mechanics of it.
