I think we've all been in your situation!

If you're relaxed you can sometimes feel when your opponent's weight is off-centre - sometimes when they're following your movement they can over extend themselves. It's possible to bridge once to shift their weight off your chest, and then again taking them over. It's a bit of a timing and sensitivity move. The direction of the bridge is subtle though. A bit tough to explain.

The bottom line is like most things in BJJ there are several ways to accomplish your objective. Stay busy, and mix them up.
