Theme & Techniques: Standing Guillotine Defense to Von Flue, Half Guard with Underhook: Take the back, Regain Guard
Partner: Ben
Before starting class I went over some posture control from closed guard with Daniel. I think I gave him a few pointers that I like to use while playing closed guard.
Apparently my left shoulder is better at Von Flue than my right. Ben kept saying I was choking a lot better on that side.
Ben noticed that I was going for the RNC during the transition to back mount instead of securing the position first and then going for the choke. I helped him work through that to and we figured out that you kind of let them fall into it as you are hip escaping.
Rolling: Half Guard, Free Rolling
Rolled With: Ben, Frank, Daniel
Had some good rolls from half guard and tried to be as diverse as possible and attempt some different things. I made it to deep half a few times and was able to use the shin sweep effectively.
From the top I avoided the hip switch and wanted to transition to x-pass or smash pass more.
Office Hours Partner: Frank
He asked about possibilities to defend my x-pass setup to which I showed some de la Riva. Greg saw us working on it and asked if I was becoming a DLR guy kind of excitedly which makes me wonder if I should dabble in it a bit more. Most of what I know about it came from Alejandro.
