TECHNIQUES:
1- REAR CHOKE DEFENSE: The standing rear-naked choke defense uses a Seoi-Nage style shoulder throw to bring your opponent to the mats. To do so, you must lower your hips below your opponents and then drive him forward and over your shoulders with an explosive pulling force while your hips drive deeper underneath. As with all self-defense throws, be sure to land with sleeve control for follow-up submission attacks.
2- REAR CHOKE DEFENSE (WHEN PULLED BACK) SIDE THROW: A common counter to the previous technique is for your opponent to pull you backward while choking you to avoid the seoi-nage throw.

This action loads your partner up for huge takedown like this fireman carry (in throwing action) style reversal that rolls your opponent off of your back.
