SC15.0 Standing Loop Choke

The Loop Choke can be administered from either the standing position or if you’re on the ground. It can be applied from the guard, full mount, or side mount. It starts from a simple cross-arm lapel choke and when one arm is looped over the lapel material becomes a tourniquet around the opponent’s neck. If the adversary is wearing a shirt this technique is viable.

Warning: This technique should only be practiced with a qualified AOKK instructor present.

Execution:

• Place uke in a cross-arm lapel choke.
• Bring one of the choking arms over uke’s head and pull the lapels into uke’s throat.
• Release the choke if uke taps, or the attacker passes out.

Warning: During practice, one attendee must know CPR. If the student is not responsive call 911.
