Theme & Techniques: Koshi Guruma, Standing Guard Break, Toreando Pass, Over/Under Pass
Partner: Casey, Chris C
One thing that I questioned about doing the toreando pass today was what roll do my elbows play. I thought I needed to control their calves with my elbows but I notice Greg doesn't do much of that. I'll have to talk to him about it later. Otherwise I worked on getting my grips and getting up as efficiently as possible.
Rolling: Guard KOTM, Free Rolling (5 min)
Rolled With: Casey, Chris, Brian G, Bhuvana, Byrav, Dave
Had some good rolls and did the standing guard break and toreando when I could. From the bottom I felt a little sluggish with some of my sweeps like they weren't clicking today. I also got stuck in the omoplata position with the arm tapped behind the back and couldn't finish it just like in my tournament match.
Office Hours Partner: Greg, Casey
Greg went over the 2 on 1 with Casey and then showed me how to finish that omoplata. My problem was that I was pushing down on their arm but coming up with them when I should have been pulling on their shoulder more. Also doing a couple hip escapes really tightened it up. This is going to be great [Wrings hands and laughs maniacally]
