Биомеханический механизм
Primary Action — Bilateral compression of the carotid arteries — restricts blood flow to the brain, causing unconsciousness within seconds
Joints Involved — Cervical spine (lateral flexion), glenohumeral joint of the trapped arm (if arm-in), nuchal region
Force Vector — Lateral squeeze creates inward pressure on both sides of the neck simultaneously
Choking Mechanism — Vascular strangle — occludes carotid arteries and jugular veins, distinct from airway (tracheal) chokes
Позиция и вход
From side control (transition) — Walk around the opponent's head to north-south position, trap the near arm, drop shoulder into the neck
From north-south position — Already in position, thread the arm under the neck, connect hands and sprawl hips to compress

✓The north-south position entry sets up the north-south choke — transitioning from side control to north-south by sliding the head past the opponent's head while maintaining chest-to-chest pressure (Danaher, Pin Escapes and Turtle Turns: BJJ Fundamentals, 2019)
✓The north-south transition: from side control, walk the feet toward the opponent's head while sliding the chest over their face — end with your chest on their chest, facing their legs
✓The north-south position is inherently choking: the attacker's weight on the opponent's face and chest restricts breathing — even before the formal choke is applied
✓From north-south: thread the choking arm under the opponent's neck (from the side you were controlling in side control), grip the far hip, and sprawl
✓The transition to the choke must be seamless: the arm threads during the positional shift, so the opponent is already half-choked when the north-south position is established
✓North-south is also a strong control position: even without the choke, the weight-on-face pressure is demoralising and energy-draining
✓The north-south entry often comes when the opponent escapes side control by turning away: their turn exposes the far side of the neck — slide to north-south and thread the choking arm as they turn
Типичные ошибки
!Losing top pressure during the transition — maintain chest contact throughout the side-control-to-north-south slide; lifting up allows the opponent to re-guard
!Not threading the arm during the transition — if the arm isn't around the neck by the time north-south is established, the opponent can tuck and defend
!Transitioning to north-south without purpose — go to north-south specifically for the choke; random positional movement without intent wastes energy
!Not controlling the opponent's arms — the near arm can frame and create space; pin or control it before establishing the choke
!Ending up too high (closer to the waist than the head) — the chest must be on the opponent's upper chest/face; too low reduces armpit-to-neck contact
!Not adjusting after the transition — fine-tune the arm position and hip height after reaching north-south; the initial position often needs adjustment
!Transitioning without maintaining dominant grips — carry your side-control grips (underhook, crossface) into the transition; releasing them gives the opponent freedom to move

Часто задаваемые вопросы
What's the main thing I need to stop when my opponent is in north-south position?
You need to prevent their elbow from escaping to the mat, especially in no-gi where it's slippier. SBG PDX emphasizes getting your thumb deep in their armpit and using body weight to pin it, since the elbow slip is their primary escape route.
How do I set up a north-south armlock so my opponent can't escape?
Get your thumb toward your head deep in their armpit, roll the arm, get your head down and pin with body weight, then walk your leg up in front of their face before pinching your knees. This controls the elbow and prevents the escape.
What are the main submissions I can finish from north-south position?
You can finish with a kimura by locking up the wrist, stepping back over the top, and using your whole body to turn the arm behind the back. You can also trap their head between your calf and thigh for a calf cutter or paper cutter choke variation.
If my opponent grips their belt to defend the kimura from north-south, what should I do?
Use constant steady pressure pulling up, and when their grip loosens from the strain, pull out and away from the belt while lifting their elbow back to your chest, using your whole body to turn the arm into the submission.
