Обзор
The Kimura Grip North-South establishes north-south control while maintaining a kimura grip (double wrist lock) on one of the opponent's arms, creating immediate submission pressure from the position. [1] The kimura grip allows the top fighter to attack the shoulder joint while the north-south weight keeps the opponent pinned and unable to roll or escape. [1],[2] The combination of chest pressure and kimura control makes this one of the most difficult positions to escape. [2],[3]

✓Kimura grip north-south uses the figure-four kimura grip on the opponent's arm from the north-south position — creating submission and transition opportunities (Danaher, Pin Escapes and Turtle Turnover, 2019)
✓The kimura grip from north-south: grip the opponent's near wrist with one hand, thread the other arm under their arm and grip your own wrist — the classic figure-four
✓From the kimura grip in north-south, options are: finish the kimura (rotate the arm behind the back), transition to armbar (step over the head), or use the grip to advance position
✓The kimura grip is a control grip as much as a submission grip: it immobilizes the opponent's arm completely
✓Kimura grip north-south transitions naturally to side control kimura: walk back to side control while maintaining the grip
✓The grip can also be used to turn the opponent: pull the kimura grip to force them to their stomach, exposing the back
✓Kimura grip north-south is particularly effective in no-gi: the figure-four grip doesn't require fabric
Типичные ошибки
!Gripping the kimura without chest pressure — maintain north-south pressure while setting up the grip
!Attempting to finish the kimura before the grip is secure — the figure-four must be fully locked
!Not using the kimura grip for transitions — the grip is a control tool, not just a submission
!Forcing the kimura finish when the opponent defends — transition to armbar or use the grip to advance position
!Releasing the grip to attempt a different technique — the kimura grip chains to multiple attacks
!Not maintaining the figure-four tightness — the grip must be vice-like; a loose grip allows escape
!Only training the kimura finish from north-south — the grip-to-transition chain is equally important

Часто задаваемые вопросы
What grip should I use when setting up the Kimura from North-South position?
Use a palm-up grip to lock your opponent's wrist against your chest, which prevents them from moving their hand freely. Chess Club Jiu-Jitsu emphasizes positioning one knee in and one knee out while maintaining this grip.
How do I finish the Kimura once I have the grip in North-South?
After securing the grip, go behind the triceps and lower elbow to bring your opponent to the side, then feed your hand through to control your own wrist with the goal of bringing their hand behind their back. Chess Club Jiu-Jitsu notes you can also break toward the other side if going straight back doesn't work.
How do I keep my opponent on their side during the Kimura submission?
Sit over the head with one leg positioned over their head and clamp their body with your legs by covering the back of your knee in front of your other knee, maintaining diagonal control. Chess Club Jiu-Jitsu demonstrates this leg positioning to prevent them from rolling back to their back.
