Meregali – Lasso Guard

Meregali – Lasso Guard

The course is built around three main layers: the type of lasso being used (Shallow Lasso or Deep Lasso), the posture of the opponent (High Posture, Low Posture), and the position of their base (Standing, One Knee Up, or Both Knees on the Mat). By breaking the system down this way, each scenario becomes easier to recognize, and every position connects logically with the different types of approach, both forward and backward. This makes the learning process fluid and repeatable for practitioners at any level.

Each section focuses on the concepts behind control, grip fighting, off-balancing, leg and hip positioning, and transitions that allow you to stay safe, maintain guard, recover from pressure, or launch attacks. The course covers both dominant scenarios and defensive situations you’re likely to face in live training. The course covers both dominant and defensive scenarios, helping you navigate through real rolling conditions, not just ideal setups. You’ll learn how to use the Lasso Guard against pressure, speed, and unpredictability.

You’ll learn:

• The difference between Shallow and Deep Lasso and when to use each
• How to identify opponent posture and base to guide your choices
• Grip fighting, leg positioning, and transitions to maintain control
• Attacks, sweeps, and defenses for all common reactions
• How to recover guard and stay safe under pressure
• Real sparring applications that connect theory to practice
