Peruvian escape

Peruvian escape is the shorthand name for the Peruvian necktie escape — the defensive sequence from the front-headlock-derived strangle that uses a rolling-through entry distinct from the Japanese and Mexican variants.

Etymology. The shortened “Peruvian escape” drops “necktie” — common in coaching shorthand where the regional descriptor alone identifies the technique. The full “Peruvian necktie escape” appears in published material.

Mechanics. The escape priority is intercepting the roll-through entry before the choking configuration closes — once the rolling sequence completes, the bilateral compression and the choke’s leverage are both established.

Cross-reference. “Roll-through necktie escape” is the alternate descriptive name. Full mechanical coverage on Peruvian Necktie Escape.
