Sharpen Your Knee Slice Like Black Belt Beatriz Mesquita
If you don’t already know who Beatriz Mesquita is, here’s a shortlist of resume points: World IBJJF champion, Pan American champion, Abu Dhabi World Pro champion, 2017 ADCC champion.
So when Beatriz posts drills we’re happy to take the Professor’s advice.
Knee slicing is one of those things we learn early on and then never stop using. (Bia herself used it at the Worlds finals this year.) If yours is a little dull or ineffective these days, come back to this drill and get it up to speed. Remember to close the distance. Get your opponent’s knee flush with the ground, make sure YOUR knee connects with their inner thigh, and then advance.
