Berimbolo — a guard player inverting underneath his standing partner, legs hooked in to roll to the back

Berimbolo

Roll under, come up behind: the inversion that rewired the guard game.

Berimbolo — Filipe Mota

The Berimbolo shelf opens with a black belt's roll: Mota holds black belts in both jiu-jitsu and luta livre, and his caption is hashtags only — #berimbolo does the naming. The archive already keeps a berimbolo introduction on the Back Control shelf, filed by its destination; this one opens the roll's own shelf, where the inversion itself is the subject.

The other end of the shelf from Mota's black-belt roll: a foundations drill. Odyssey Jiu-Jitsu in Naju, South Korea runs a dedicated drill-training class, and this is its berimbolo at the basic-practice level — the inversion broken into reps for students still learning to roll under a partner. The caption says it in Korean: drill class, berimbolo, fundamentals.
