Turtle Defence — Far Side Roll | BJJ Fundamentals Course S5E4

The far side roll escape from turtle position — video 4 in Section 5 (Turtle Position) of the BJJ Fundamentals Course at Nakama BJJ.

When your opponent has a seatbelt grip or is attacking from the side, the far side roll lets you invert underneath them and recover guard. It's a crucial escape that prevents the back take and puts you in a much safer position.

In this video you'll learn:
- When the far side roll is the right escape
- Proper rolling mechanics from turtle
- Recovering guard after the roll
- How this escape connects with other turtle defences
