<p>Every Jiu-Jitsu practitioner, in training or competition, has heard shouts of, “Grab his head!” Grabbing the head when on attack and not letting your opponent grab yours is one of the lessons that arises on our pages the most, as GRACIEMAG readers know so well.</p>
<p>Why does this act of locking down an opponent&#8217;s head get so much emphasis from teachers, and why is it so dreaded by the one trying to defend?</p>
<p>With it&#8217;s head free as always, GRACIEMAG.com chased down a number of professors of Jiu-Jitsu and competitors to clear matters up once and for all.</p>
<h3>HEAD LOCKED DOWN, HIP TRAPPED IN JIU-JITSU</h3>
<p>“Basically, locking down the head allows you greater stability when on top in side control and half-guard. With your head wrapped up and trapped, the guy on bottom has a much harder time moving to try for the sweep or replace guard,” taught Vinicius Cruz, a Carlson Gracie black belt, adding:</p>
<p>“By grabbing the head and applying the always-useful shoulder pressure on your opponent, he&#8217;s trapped, unable to move his hip. He ends up with his face pointed outwards, his spine too, which means he can&#8217;t turn inwards nor shrimp his hips to replace guard. On the other hand, there are a number of guard-pass and side-control positions where you don&#8217;t need to grab the head.”</p>
<p>A gold medalist at the New York Open 2012, Daniel Beleza of SAS team says that grabbing the head also broadens your scope of attack:</p>
<h3>“THE HEAD GUIDES THE BODY IN JIU-JITSU”</h3>
<p>“In half-guard, having your head locked down means greater stability for the one on top, as well as a better chance of passing guard. With your head locked down you&#8217;re limited in your ability to perform counter-attack movements like sweeps and taking the back,” he explained. “In side control, when you&#8217;re chest to chest with your opponent, it&#8217;s the same principle. Once you have the head locked down, the one on top is much more stable and has more attack options, like mounting, knee-on-belly and finishes,” Daniel elaborated.</p>
<p>Now Juarez Soares da Costa, the leader of Araruama Jiu-Jitsu and the technical director at FJJ-Rio, sums things up tidily: “Your head is what guides your whole body in Jiu-Jitsu. If it&#8217;s locked down, can&#8217;t move, your opponent has control over your whole body.”</p>
<p>Check out the lesson from professor of Jiu-Jitsu Daniel Viana, where he shows how controlling the head and causing discomfort with the shoulder is useful for surmounting half-guard.</p>

<p>Todo praticante de Jiu-Jitsu já escutou, em treinos ou competições, o grito: &#8220;Domina a cabeça!&#8221;. Dominar a cabeça ao atacar, e nunca deixar o rival dominar a sua, é uma das lições mais repetidas em nossas páginas, como o leitor de GRACIEMAG sabe bem.</p>
<p>Por que esse ato de abraçar o pescoço é tão reforçado pelos professores, e por que deve ser tão temido por quem está tentando se defender?</p>
<p>Com a cabeça livre como sempre, o GRACIEMAG.com correu atrás dos mais variados professores e competidores, para esclarecer tal enigma de uma vez por todas.</p>
<h3><span style="font-size: large;">Cabeça dominada, quadril preso no Jiu-Jitsu</span></h3>
<p>&#8220;Basicamente, o domínio da cabeça propicia maior estabilidade no cem-quilos e na meia-guarda. Com sua cabeça enlaçada e dominada, o praticante sente mais dificuldade para se movimentar para raspar ou repor a guarda&#8221;, ensina Vinicinho Cruz, faixa-preta de Carlson Gracie, que completa:</p>
<p>&#8220;Com o domínio da cabeça, e a sempre útil pressão do seu ombro no rosto do oponente, seu rival fica preso, sem muita movimentação de quadril. O que ocorre é que ele fica com o rosto virado para fora, e sua coluna também, o que não permite que ele se vire para dentro nem fuja o quadril para repor. Por outro lado, também existem diversas posições de passagem de guarda e estabilização lateral em que você não precisa fazer o domínio da cabeça&#8221;.</p>
<p>Medalhista de ouro no New York Open 2012, Daniel Beleza (SAS) ensina que a cabeça dominada também aumenta o leque de opção de ataques:</p>
<h3><span style="font-size: large;">&#8220;A cabeça comanda o corpo no Jiu-Jitsu&#8221;</span></h3>
<p>&#8220;Na meia-guarda, a cabeça dominada signifca mais estabilização para quem está por cima, e mais chance de resultar numa boa passagem de guarda. Com a cabeça imobilizada, você fica limitado em seus movimentos de contra-ataque, como raspagens e tentativas de pegar as costas&#8221;, explica. &#8220;No cem-quilos, quando você está peito a peito com o oponente, o princípio é o mesmo. A partir desse domínio da cabeça, quem está por cima tem mais estabilidade e opções de ataques para montar, botar o joelho na barriga e mirar as finalizações&#8221;, reforça Daniel.</p>
<p>Já Juarez Soares da Costa, líder da Araruama Jiu-Jitsu e diretor técnico da FJJ-Rio resume bem a parada: &#8220;A cabeça é o que comanda todo o corpo no Jiu-Jitsu. Sempre que ela fica travada, sem movimentação, seu rival terá o domínio de todo o corpo&#8221;.</p>
<p>Aprenda no vídeo abaixo, com o professor Daniel Vianna, como o domínio da cabeça e o incômodo no ombro no rosto é útil para transpor a meia-guarda.</p>
