Daruma Dojo - Deep Half Guard - Episode 1 - Technique Thursday

From Daruma Dojo

July 31, 2026

Deep half guard is built through connection, leverage and control beneath your opponent’s center of gravity.

A developed deep half guard allows you to manage pressure, disrupt the base and create a direct path from the bottom position to the top without relying on strength.

Episode 1 begins with the primary objective: getting on top and establishing control.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
