Choke from the Front Against a Wall

Choke from Behind with a Pull

Drill: Partner groups; A stands two steps from wall with eyes closed. B turns A in circle, mixing up clockwise and counter-clockwise so as to create confusion. B can stop A at any time and apply Choke from the Front Against a Wall or Choke from Behind with a Pull or Choke from the Front with a Push (if A does not have back to wall when stopped). As soon as choke is applied, A opens eyes and makes appropriate defense.
