When you hear the term "head scissors", you probably start thinking about professional wrestling more so than Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training. That's fair enough, because it certainly sounds like something that just wouldn't work on a trained, respectable opponent. The fantastic thing about it is that it actually does work in real time.

Carlson Gracie made the move semi-famous among students within his lineage, and I was lucky enough to learn this move from Julio "Foca" Fernandez and Eric Burdo a long time ago. It has since become a nice part of my Kimura system. I hope that you can swiftly integrate this move into your own game and enjoy doing things that aren't supposed to be real BJJ moves on your training partners!
