Side Control

You lie perpendicular across his torso, chest to chest, your knees and hips tight to his near side and your weight dropped through your chest into his sternum. Pressure is weight placed precisely, not muscle squeezed harder: hips low, toes on the mat, arms controlling his head and far side so his hips cannot turn in to you. The pin limits his hips and sets up submissions on the near arm. From the base choose the variant: Crossface and Underhook to attack the near arm, Kesa Gatame or Reverse Kesa to sit beside him, North-South to rotate around his head, Knee-on-Belly when he turns in to you. He frames on your neck and hip, shrimps to make space and tries to recover guard or come up to his knees; keep your near elbow and hip glued to him so no knee slides back in between you.
