Yes there is a possibility to get swept if they hop their hip off the knee to the far side and control your arm or sleeve, if I feel they are lifting the hip though I will use my lead arm on the hip and lean my weight into it to prevent them from lifting and continue with the break.
if you can control the hip by pressing it down, you can prevent them from lifting it up and switching it over for the sweep… if your talking about the small sweep I do from the knee behind the butt
This is great except I’m running into 1 problem. I suspect I’m doing something incorrectly. When I go from posture to putting my knee behind his butt, I lean forward slightly (breaking my posture). If I get past that I’m good to go. But a quick guy will catch me. Is there a way to shift your weight so that you can move your knee behind his butt without leaning forward? Or maintaining that strong posture more generally?
Richard C – you can also lean to the side in order to get your knee under the butt. That helps kill the posture break since you aren’t leaning forward.
Can you get swept from this knee behind the but position? An instructor I once had showed us that you can get swept from doing this.

Could you please make a video to the counter of the sweep please?

excellent advice henry !
Does the hand on the hip prevent them from attacking that arm on your chest once you turn your upper body sideways?
My posture prevents them from attacking the arm but yes the hand on the hip can help.

Nope that is one of the issues with this break, if their timing is good when you go to but the knee behind they can pull you off balance
How do you handle people who shimmy the hip to keep the knee from getting behind the butt. Thank you
