Arm Isolation in Mount Position
The instructor begins in mount position with the opponent's arms extended. It is critical to prevent the opponent from bringing their hand inside the body, as this compromises the technique. Maintaining arm isolation is the foundation for a successful Ezekiel choke.
Creating Space with Head Pressure
The instructor uses head pressure to force the opponent's head to turn laterally. This head positioning creates the necessary space to execute the choke without interference from the opponent's defensive posture.
Arm Placement and Sleeve Control
The choking arm wraps around the opponent's neck while the hand penetrates deep into the opponent's sleeve. This positioning allows the instructor to control both the arm and the neck simultaneously, preventing escape attempts.
Four-Finger Grip Application
Four fingers of the choking hand grip the inside of the opponent's sleeve while the hand closes around the throat area. This grip configuration provides mechanical advantage and prevents the opponent from clearing the choke with their free arm.
Applying Downward Pressure
The instructor drives downward with the choking arm while maintaining sleeve control. This synchronized pressure restricts the opponent's airway and blood flow simultaneously.
Persisting Through Breathing
If the opponent manages to breathe initially, the instructor continues applying pressure without releasing tension. Persistence and constant downward pressure will eventually complete the choke and force the opponent to submit or lose consciousness.
