About this episode
This week, we're joined by Stephan Kesting! In this episode, Stephan teaches the Kimura as both a submission and a positional system: its ancient origins, key positional variations, and how it functions as a control framework rather than just a finishing move. Topics include finishing mechanics, leverage physics, the "fat old lazy man" Kimura, and Kesting’s new instructional, The Kimura Roadmap.Follow Stephan Kesting on Instagram:https://instagram.com/stephan_kestingLearn online with Stephan at Grapplearts:https://grapplearts.comResources discussed in this episode:The Kimura Roadmap, by Stephan Kestinghttps://grapplearts.com/kimuraThe Near Side Kimura, A Forgotten Positionhttps://youtu.be/62oLRT_Sar4The Lazy, Old, Fat Man Kimurahttps://youtu.be/29JtQffs-yASubmission as Position, feat.
