Theme & Techniques: Head Lock Escape to Back Mount, Kneeling Guard Break to Knee Slide, Knee Wedge Guard Break
Students: Jesus, Craig, Ryal, Matt, Morgan, Jess
Got
to teach this morning and was happy to see a good size class for a
Friday morning. I had them do the standing guard break drill where one
partner just did the standing part 10 times in a row. This drill helped
me immensely with my guard passing when we did it in competition
classes in the past. I added in the knee wedge guard break that I
usually call the violator. I think it lends itself especially well to
transition right into knee slide pass. It went pretty well but like
usual a few people had trouble getting their knee in the right place.
Rolling: Guard Up/Down/Out
Rolled With: Everyone
Saw
some good rolls and people attempting the standing guard break and knee
slide. I saw some successes and a lot of good hand fighting. I
witnessed Jess pull off a cross guard omoplata sweep. Something that we
worked on recently. Gives me warm and fuzzy instructor feelings seeing
someone complete a technique that I taught them. I don't remember
doing anything out of the ordinary during rolling, I mostly attempted
the standing guard break and knee slide.
Office Hours Partner: Morgan, Jess
Had
a good couple of rolls with Morgan, then watched him and Jess roll.
Talked about Jess leaning forward to much allowing for people to put on
kimuras. We talked a bit about tournament rules and scoring and likes
and dislikes about submission only vs points.
