The Guillotine Choke is perhaps the most basic submission hold in fighting. It comes instinctively to just about everyone.

What isn’t so simple, is escaping a guillotine. Often, your instincts work against you and put you in more danger.

In this video, I will show you what I call the Elbow Escape. This works for neck only (no arm inside grip) guillotines, and is pretty much the only escape I use.

It is simple and should be a part of everyone’s defensive skill set.
