#triangle choke

The simplest way to describe what makes a triangle choke work is that the sides of your neck get squeezed by two things, your opponent's leg or arm on one side, your own shoulder on the other. To escape you need to either twist in such a way that you relieve the pressure on at least one side of your neck or, better yet, find a way to extract your trapped arm or change the position of the trapped limb such that it's not crushing into your neck.

This could be from twisting or turning, sliding your upper arm forward away from the side of your neck, or better yet, moving in such a way that you are able to pull your arm free. For example, in this instance, if Kyong were to move her body forward in a manner akin to folding towards Dani's torso, that would have the effect of wedging Dani's legs apart and Kyong pulling her own head and arm back and down, potentially getting her trapped arm free and giving her a chance to escape.

That's an excellent option in fact.

Definitely the one she needs to do.

She just needs to do that.

Simple as...

It seems the space between Dani's legs hasn't expanded much. Hasn't expanded at all. Feels even tighter in fact...
