Your social distancing in the park when suddenly an attacker grabs you by the hair. What do you do, ideally in a fight? You want to be all the way out or they can't reach you or all the way in where their strikes aren't effective. But when someone grabs you by the hair, neither one of these are possible option. One grab the wrist turn drop, break his elbow and force them to let go if that fails, pull them into your guard. Turtle pivot bite him with your legs and use your hips to break the arm if, instead, he lands mounted on you trap the arm, lock the foot bridge and roll control, the inside posture up on his throat elbow strike and disengage. If he's in your guard, but has your wrist pin insert your knees, sneak your leg over his neck figure for your legs, squeeze your thighs pull the head and in six seconds he's out cold. If he tries to stand up within your guard, place both feet on his hips, lift him up turn him in the air and drop him on his back. Got ta love the helicopter armbar, ladies believe it or not.

Peter K: "You're social distancing in the park..." had me dying

Diana Atobe: I just love everything the two of you do and now I’m going to try to learn. Keep it up you’re awesome! ❣️

Fight Club Jiu Jitsu: Love these and all your content, can't wait to open my own CTC but in the meantime I'll keep teaching and posting my videos

strangec73: I have a young daughter and while I think this is great for defending from a guy who is trying to immobilize a female, what about the hair pull and uppercuts/throwing around from another female? Usually it’s a bigger female grabbing a smaller female’s hair and then starts whaling on them. How would they defend against that?

Jake V: Thanks for the vid! I'm a blue belt teaching my little brother and sister bjj and needed some good hair grab defense for my sister.

Carmen Munoz: That's awesome! If only I had a partner who would want to train with me.

James Welsh: I'm a 250lb man and I want to learn that!!

Clarissa T: Thank you, all though I am a complete beginner I feel like this is something that will change my life. When I walk and talk , I can with confidence

trish robinson: This is amazing advice thank you

Luciano Oliveira: That hip scape with a up kick to the face is really good ladies! Keep doing this great job

Emberly Marquez: This is really helpful, thanks!

Bacchus Endo: i'm a guy growing his hair out and this is actually pretty helpful

Vince Peterson: Nice work! Thank you for sharing.

Syilver A. Wors: I like how she says "if A, do B" like it's a basic manoeuvre

Bernardus Kharsyntiew: Thank you for sharing your technique... I have two daughters... Thanks again, much appreciated..

Rendroc: When the she throws the guy down to the ground and then straddles him, he’ll probably be very confused, until his arm is broken of course.

White Belt Central: I hope maybe I can get some kind of response from you guys. A female friend of a friend was just attacked by her husband. He threw her against a wall. Now she wants me to teach her boxing because she knows I'm a boxing instructor (low-level and I love teaching). I've always recommended BJJ as infinitely better than boxing for self defense, and I'm not shy about it. But it would still benefit them to get pointers on striking basics. I'm uncomfortable with teaching this petite woman boxing for self defense. The time it takes to learn how to do hooks and straights and all the rest correctly is too long. It needs to be made second nature before it's of any use in a real fight. And with women, there's the discrepancy in upper body strength. That's a HUGE disadvantage, in my opinion. BUT the strike here that I see Mrs Gracie do - I cant look at the time code because it's youtube isn't letting me go back - THAT I want to teach. I've seen one woman knockout a man with a strike like that. It's a really wide see-it-from-downtown strike. And it generates a lot of power. It's what a boxer would cringe at. And I love it. I would be comfortable teaching THAT. What is that? What's it called? Has it been pressure tested in any way? That strike seems like it would be relatively easy to teach, and it seems very natural. And powerful. Any response I can hopefully get from a Gracie would be wonderful. Thank you for all that you do.

Chad Thundercock: Ah yes, Helicopter Armbar, the perfect self harm-I mean defence move for the complete beginner

FBIagent: Glad there’s finally some realistic women’s self defense

NvB Neon: pull guard in a street fight seems dangerous

Samantha Golding: Yes! YES!! This is what I've been searching for ALL over the internet! Couldn't find it anywhere

Jesse Salazar: Hey Rener how about a quarantine home workout?

Philip Almayda: Omg that pony tail grab to arm break is soooo goooood

Agathis Raine: Hello this isn't my real name but I want to do online learning please. Get more self defence as I'm an eighth kyu in kyokushinkai and have not learnt any self defence due to it being traditional karate with realistic mindfulness however, as a woman with another at my dojo. I want skills to take away with me that will be effective and help my karate friend out so me and her can feel confident against a male adversary.

Jmoney Da Drivah: Also ladies remember that if the first move fails, have him stand up and you guys do a reset, and then you do the next move and see if that works

Kushagra Singh: "you're social distancing in a park"

Kendal Rivera: I don't mean to trash on this, but are these techniques feasible on an actively resisting male attacker? While i agree that showing a technique without resistance is the easiest way to show proper form, I also want to make sure that I am able to witness them being used actively and them still working. Is there a video or demonstration somewhere where i might be able to see this?

pahwraith: I recommend stomping him in the crotch instead of a helicopter armbar. And upkicks in general when they try to stand in your guard. But that's just me.....a lowly purple belt.

Mr Mann: Hope you two don't fight in front of the kids! Actually, you probably do- the ones in your classes! Great stuff Gracie's.

Chris Rubeo: Awesome!

User: this is what they should keep doing video like these men,women and kids self defense not those paid adverts training ‍♂️

Dirty Hippie Designs: "Man bun defense."

Allen Clw: I normally respect BJJ. But I don't think the hairgrab shown in this video had any root in reality. I understand it is for demonstration purpose but last time I saw a girl being handlled by the hair, she had barely any room to move forward as the assaulter arm strengh prevented her from moving her head and even dictated the way the victim moved since the body goes where the head goes. Can you please make another video with proper hair grabbing, in this one you can see how the demonstrator had way too much slack and could move her head around apart from the time the assaulter was tugging "momentarily" on it.

Jmoney Da Drivah: Yeah you hear that ladies who have never had any training and are learning self-defense tactics for the first time today??? just go into your years of training and do sweet ass Jiu-Jitsu moves like she is...works everytime like Anaconda Malt liquor...

Michael E. Jordan: Be the Hammer! And sometimes use the nail!

Freecheese: These are real self defense techniques.

Janette Timms: The way she hipped him off her I tried this on a16 stone man Did not work they stop hips lifting

turt: *laughs in bald*

roberto riestra: It works for longhair guys too? or just women?

ked4: We need to bullyproof Flavio Almeida against Ralph Gracie

Truth Hitman: Streets fights are NOTHING like in this video. You have to be more realistic. Street fights are spontaneous and mad wild. The moves in this particular video are more suited for inside the Octagon in an MMA bout or UFC because they are more technical than a street fight with absolutely no rules.

Mike Hunt: Walked in to my nephew watching this video, at 0:26 seconds smh, I was about to whoop his ass lol.

Trooper RCB: Btw... now that you made bjj so we’ll known you never shown in that video the what ifs of the attacker knowing himself bjj.. but no.. a bjj student will never be the aggressor right..

Jeff T: This is really good for women to learn. However, I would also say some real sparring and training with guys are needed, cuz those techniques are not always gonna be that easy to pull off. Especially if the attacker is a really big or very strong guy. Like I would not recommend pulling guard at all cuz of the possibility of them landing in mount. Mount could be death. But hey, i'm no professional so...

datacipher: LOL....none of this is likely to work in the real-world....sigh...just as bad as the karate and judo women's self defense they'd try to teach women in the 70's and 80's. I started training in the martial arts as a kid in the 80's. FACT: it's hard enough for an athletic man in his prime to pull this off against a roughly equal attacker in a real-world situation.....for a 110lb woman against a 220lb man... folly. Scream, go for the eyes, go for the groin, scratch, bite, do anything you need to, and run like hell. Do not drop to the ground, trying for guard... PLEASE.

Grantjohn Cunningham: "We can teach you all of this so you can be a better person.... but you gotta pay. Then you can go out into your community and get others to pay you to pay us to learn stuff.... just give us money"

macvsog06: Unless she renders the attacker unconscious or dead, what happens next?

Ssspitbul: Today my "friend" grabbed me from my hair he let me go but im still hurting but really i throwed rocks at him so yeah i got revenge

Ognjen Radić: "If Sambo was easy it would be called Jiu-jitsu"

Maria Oldenburg: Hi I want to do this, I’ll be turning 14 soon is that to young? If so is there something else I can do instead?

GK Imagimotion: Good stuff it is definitely better to know something than nothing but still a lot of bjj wouldn't really work against bigger and stronger opponent and unfortunately that is usually the case

Unlawful Muzik:

Krutika Studio: Thank you

°Ash°: Wow I need to go there

Tamira aep Anchor: Just tell me if it works in real live or die situation

Mani S: Maybe if the attackers were bots from call of duty, this will work

Sn00pDevill: Повезло тебе с женой, такая красотка

Jefferson Duping: Can u please demonstrate it slowly

FredBitta: Great moves, but "you can learn it from home" is missleading... You need to practice those

Rebo Punk: Why the hell a man would do that in the beginning?! Just be nice y'all

Chantal Thompson: What if you’re small?

Neng Devi: This not tutorial for beginner She is profesional Jiu Jitsu for years do this

Zlove bae: sorry jiu-jitsu or brazillian jiu-jitsu barely work in street fight scenario. One thing you don't want is getting on the ground with your opponent. Instead, learn the art of surrounding awareness-> don't your head glue to the phone, run away with good stamina and attack them with more aggresive tools like stick, knife, hot water, scream and head butt.

Data Rights Are Human Rights:

bs jeffrey: what about thumbs to the eyes?

Trooper RCB: Well... those 0:21 punches won’t help your scenario as you think

drwillfranklin1: You guys should do 30mins talk shows...

Real Dreamers Change The World: this video was hilarious haha

PFC thomas W.: The young lady has a cute face and dreamy hair I'd like to see more hair pulling with her involved

1sunstyle: I had a guy grab my hair from behind once. I bent back and snaked his throat. Rener makes great bad guy faces.

Kenzie Leigh: How much does it cost

Mat N: Ladies? My hair is longer than yours Eve. Don't forget the Viking, Metalheads and cavemen among us. Oh, and hipsters...nah, forget them.

#Pandaeyes #Nexit #Idonotconsent: Do not use muzzles

Samona Monique Seymore: Hips and thighs. Good

Alex: Sr Helio Gracie would be gutted and dishonoured, but as long you are filling your bank account who cares.

Pedro Araújo: Pink belt? BJJ?

Smedley Butler III: How bout "You're just hangin out in a park" ?because that's what normal people do. Since we are still humans n stuff, and individuals..? or is that over

Louie Joe: Helicopter armbar, lmao I guess so

fpstina: how are you not in movies? you're gorgeous and scary.

TheVryfst: All of these assume there's no 2nd attack move after the hair grab. Like a punch to the face, a knee to the face... as in, I grab your hair and knee you in the face. That's called devastating and this defense video is BS. BS BS BS BS BS.

Anderson Carrillo Letuse': General comment jujitsu is the last option for self defense, so sorry to say that but is the truth, some kravmaga would be better

cooking sikandra: Oh poor females

Constance Miller: This chick is a video game character.

Owen U: i bet it gets FREAKY in the sheets

si lafuyang: Too complicated
