What Will You Learn?

Pressure passing is one of the most reliable ways to dominate your opponents—but what if it didn’t stop at just passing?

In Pressure Passing: Control & Submissions, William Dorman shows you how to turn crushing top pressure into a complete system of control, progression, and finishes. Instead of treating guard passing as a separate phase, William blends passing directly into submissions and positional dominance—so every inch you gain leads to a threat.

This is about making your game feel heavy, suffocating, and inescapable.

William breaks down how to systematically shut down your opponent’s guard, control their hips and upper body, and apply pressure in a way that forces mistakes. From there, you’ll learn how to capitalize immediately—transitioning into submissions or securing dominant positions without giving your opponent space to recover.

Whether you’re dealing with flexible guard players, explosive scramblers, or defensive opponents who won’t open up, this system gives you a clear path to breaking through and finishing the fight.
