Kid's Class
My boys did great today. I was really impressed with their falls especially. The technique they worked on was escape from side control. That didn't go as well. They just had a hard time getting into side control. They played Sumo Foot tag and it was very fun to watch. It's interesting to see the kids use a strategy and then modify it over time. However, there was a lot of running in circles. We finished the day with blob tag.
Open Mat
I had a couple of things that I focused on today. I also focused on the 2 on 1 guard and had some success with that as well. Single leg-x guard has been a reoccurring theme as of late and I was able to set it up from the 2 on 1 a few times. I did get stuck a couple times and couldn't complete the sweep. The cross guard also served me well like usual.
I rolled with the following:
Henry: Did a better job of not gassing out, still got submitted though. His baseball bat choke is coming along
Conan: After he demolished me a few times. We talked about the shin to shin guard retention he was doing to prevent me from passing.
Nick: New guy who is in the ROTC with Jorge. After a few rolls I went over the toreando pass with him.
Tim: He was having a pretty good day on the mats, so I did my best to crush his spirits. Not really, we had a few good rolls
Wes: I rolled with him the longest and experimented with the 2 on 1 quite a bit. Afterwards he showed me some cross guard stuff that he learned from Saulo Ribero.
Bauer: Had some good rolls. I used cross guard to the best of my abilities and ended up with the pendulum sweep a couple times. I spent some time in mount and almost ended up in a barata plata, but I didn't know how to get into position. I went over some cross guard stuff with him after that.
