Okay I'm reading the contents of Bill Coopers Escape DVD and he has a few for the Shaolin.  What is this?? Is it a position or a submission?  I search online and the results are all kung fu related.  And if you have a link to some photos or an actual video that would super sweet Smile

 

Thanks for your time

i havent seen the dvds but i did find a review of mr coopers vids on sherdog saying that most of the escapes end in the shaolin. it was described as a version of the darce.

if you cant beat them, arrange to have them beaten.

Morgan, I believe the Shaolin is a version of a D'arce named after vitor "shaolin" ribeiro. One of my former students used to hit it all the time (Otto Olson 2nd place ADCC 2003) Its very confusing but in the same family as the anaconda, brabo and darce.

After reading some reviews it seems that Cooper refers to the D'arce as the shoalin.

Ahhh..... thank you gentlemen for that info.  I have to admit I'd rather choke out a guy with a "Shoalin" then a D'arce.  It just sounds cooler lol

 

Thanks again guys

I don't know I've always thought D'arce was a cool name.  Shaolin is just a bit cliche IMHO.
