Striking to Kimura is a guard-based arm-lock submission that transitions from striking or striking-like actions into a controlled joint-lock finish. The technique involves forcing the opponent's hands to the mat as a prerequisite—a critical detail emphasized across all three instructors. Matt Arroyo Jiu Jitsu describes using the "torpedo method," actively following the opponent's hands with leg pressure and blocking until palms contact the mat, while Chewjitsu advocates arching the back to create a "slope" that makes hand placement on the mat difficult for the opponent. Once hands are grounded and the attacker achieves chest-to-chest contact, the setup mirrors the classical Kimura grip: both arms controlling one opponent arm in a figure-four configuration. Key distinctions emerge in grip preferences—Arroyo favors thumb-down positioning on the wrist, while Chewjitsu recommends switching to a thumbless grip to avoid thumb injury and improve grip security. Performance MMA emphasizes creating offensive pressure from the guard rather than waiting for the opponent's mistake, using collar control to force engagement. All three instructors stress hip-drive finishing mechanics and elbow positioning: keeping elbows tight to the body dramatically increases pressure and prevents escape. The technique succeeds through leveraging two arms against one, with body positioning and hip pressure ultimately overpowering arm strength.

Часто задаваемые вопросы
Why do I miss the Kimura finish when rolling with better opponents?
According to Matt Arroyo Jiu Jitsu, you're likely missing small but critical details in the setup and finish. The most common mistake is grabbing the wrist too early, which alerts your opponent and lets them rip their arm free. Instead, get your opponent's hands flat on the mat first, then hook high at the shoulder and armpit—not the forearm—to trap the arm before they can escape.
What's the correct grip and arm position for the Kimura?
Matt Arroyo Jiu Jitsu recommends using a thumbless grip with your bicep positioned perpendicular (behind) your opponent's arm, not pulled in front like a pull-up. Once locked in, glue their elbow to your chest and push their wrist toward their back rather than pulling, which is much stronger. Keep your elbows pinched tight together throughout—the further your elbows are apart, the weaker the finish.
How do I finish the Kimura when my opponent drops their weight on their hand?
Matt Arroyo Jiu Jitsu explains that if your opponent's hand is glued to the mat, use an elbow-to-hip motion repeatedly, bulldozing their hand off the mat with your hip. Keep your top leg positioned high and across their back to prevent them from forward rolling out. Once their hand lifts, you can finish the submission.
What should I do differently when setting up the Kimura from closed guard?
Chewjitsu emphasizes that you must break posture first, then grab the wrist and lock your own arm out straight. If your arm is bent, your opponent can easily roll your wrist back in. When you open your guard, do a small hip escape and shift to your side, then sit up to your elbow (not your butt) to maintain control and lean forward with pressure.
Why is keeping my elbows tight so important in the Kimura finish?
Both Matt Arroyo Jiu Jitsu and Chewjitsu stress that the further your elbows are apart, the weaker your leverage becomes. Pinching your elbows in tight creates maximum mechanical advantage, especially when you transition to the thumbless grip. This is critical whether you're finishing from the top or when you're already on your side.
