The Crocodile (also called the Alligator) encompasses both a foundational locomotion drill and an advanced submission technique. SundarJiuJitsu presents the movement pattern as a warm-up drill where the practitioner moves in all-fours position using opposite-hand, opposite-foot coordination—when the left hand moves forward, the right foot steps; when the right hand moves, the left foot steps. This pattern lowers the body progressively until full extension is achieved. The four-corners variation involves threading one leg through to face different directions before repeating the locomotion sequence. SundarJiuJitsu emphasizes the real-world application in side control, where the Crocodile movement allows the top player to follow an escaping opponent's hip movement and control their knee placement, preventing guard replacement. Gracie Humaita Jiujitsu in Brownsville describes a distinct submission called the Alligator Choke, performed from a sprawl position after an opponent shoots in. The technique involves opening the collar with one hand placed thumb-up beneath the opponent's armpit, then rolling through with the head underneath the body to feed the hand behind the neck, finishing with a push-pull mechanism on the collar. The name derives from the rolling motion through the opponent's body. Both instructors agree on the importance of limb positioning and weight distribution, though they address different contexts—one defensive scrambling, one offensive submission finishing.

Часто задаваемые вопросы
How do I keep my opponent from escaping side mount when I have The Crocodile position?
Keep your opposite knee and hand engaged close to your opponent's body, and adjust your position as soon as your opponent starts to move away—if you don't change, they will escape. According to SundarJiuJitsu, you can walk forward and block their knee with a sit-through to maintain control.
What's the proper hand and grip placement for finishing the Alligator Choke?
Open the collar with one hand while threading your other hand underneath the opponent's armpit with your thumb pointing toward their ear, getting as deep and tight as possible on the neck. Gracie Humaita Jiujitsu emphasizes that you must get your hand in deep—they should feel the choke before you even roll through.
How do I finish the Alligator Choke if I can't reach behind the head initially?
Roll through by tucking your head under and driving your arm all the way through with the choke, then once your head clears, you can put your hand behind their head and finish by holding your own arm. Gracie Humaita Jiujitsu explains this is the key adjustment when you're too far away to reach the initial grip.
