Перевод: Sleeve Wheel Strangle — From Guard
The Ezekiel choke from guard is applied by the bottom player who threads one hand inside their own sleeve and wraps it around the opponent's neck, then uses the forearm of the other arm to press across the throat and complete the strangle. [1],[2] From closed guard, the attacker pulls the opponent's posture down and secures the sleeve grip behind the head before positioning the choking forearm. [1] This is an unorthodox guard attack that catches opponents off-guard because the Ezekiel is more commonly expected from top positions. [1],[2]
The Ezekiel choke is named after Brazilian judoka Ezequiel Rodrigues, who used it extensively in BJJ training at the Carlson Gracie academy in the 1990s. [1],[2] While the technique originates from judo's sode-guruma-jime (袖車絞め, sleeve wheel strangle), Rodrigues' aggressive application from inside the opponent's guard made the bottom-position variant famous. [1] The guard application reverses the typical setup, with the bottom player using their own sleeve rather than applying it from a top pin. [1],[2]
The Ezekiel choke from inside the guard is a rare top-player submission, using the sleeve as a fulcrum to choke from inside closed guard. [1]
The Ezekiel choke (sode-guruma-jime) originated in judo and was named after Brazilian judoka Ezequiel Paraguassu, who used it extensively in BJJ competition. [1]
The Ezekiel choke from guard is used in both gi BJJ and MMA competition, notably as a surprise submission from inside guard. [1]

The Ezekiel choke from guard is executed by trapping the opponent's neck between the attacker's forearm and collar grip, typically applied when the defender is mounted or the top player is in a dominant position. Matt Arroyo Jiu Jitsu demonstrates a gi-based variation using an arm-on-arm approach: the attacker pushes the opponent's arm down, threads their arm under the head in a head-arm triangle configuration, inserts three fingers into their own collar, and drives the fist and wristwatch into the neck while sitting perpendicular and extending. Brandon Mccaghren presents an old-school no-gi method with hands under the head, chest down, and the wrist laid across the grip with the elbow tucked to hook the back, then rotating the head to mount and flexing the wrist to constrict the throat. JonThomasBJJ emphasizes a sleeve-assisted finish detail: after threading the hands through, sliding the grip over to lock it tight creates additional posture and finishing pressure. Jordan Teaches Jiujitsu describes a no-gi version from mount using a bicep bite: lifting the opponent's head to deepen arm placement, making a fist while grabbing the bicep, and pressing the fist onto the carotid artery. Common across all variations is the principle of using forearm pressure against the neck combined with positional control to restrict blood flow.

According to Gui Mendes at Art of Jiu Jitsu, the main detail is to elevate your opponent's elbow so it aligns with their shoulder line. If your shoulder is on their face but you can't finish, you need to adjust the elbow position to create the proper angle for the choke.
James Clingerman advises grabbing your opponent's hand, pulling it down, and pressing their elbow up—this small angle adjustment breaks the choke. The escape is the same regardless of position: hand down, elbow up, and you're free.
Yes, James Clingerman emphasizes that the Ezekiel choke is one of the few techniques that works from almost anywhere—even inferior positions like mount—as long as your head is inside your opponent's guard.
Keep your opponent close and maintain pressure; don't let them create distance or 'make pasta' with their arms. James Clingerman stresses keeping them tight against you and being ready to adjust if they try to shift their elbow or create an angle.
