The Ladder Sweep from Closed Guard is a high-percentage Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu technique that teaches off-balancing, timing, and clean transitions to top position.
In this lesson from 316 BJJ, we break down the ladder sweep step by step, focusing on:

✔️ Hip movement and angle creation
✔️ Maintaining control after the sweep
This technique is ideal for:
