"JASON JEANETTE: Hi, I'm Jason Jeannette. This is Daniel Klapheke from Elite Martial Arts of Middle Tennessee for Expert Village. DANIEL KLAPHEKE: This is a no-rules version of escaping the mount. In this version, I'm not counting on my ability to bridge properly or to build a roll. So I'm going to get straight to it and I'm going to break the rules with my right hand, a punch to the groin. As he reacts, I'm going to reach out and get a hold of him, hold him to me so he can't punch me, then keep him controlled. I'm going to slide this hand over to this side of his hair. I'm going to run my fingers through his hair on this side and pull it towards the ground this way. As I do, I'm going to push with this arm here. So I'm going to pull, he's going to turn his neck here, and I'm in a better position."
