Morgo was in with a guest from the US.

Warm up was short with a a few variation of an ankle pick with a collar tie. Technique involved a slip collar choke transition switch to preposition to the opposing size when your partner defends by moving to the opposite side of the over hook and with your partner turtling to defend. Keith was in for a bit, and he showed us a few variants of the take down which was nice. My favorite was collar tie to a mount guillotine.

Myself, Morgan, Aria, Scotty P, Big Rig, New guy white belt Alex with the nice blue GI…

Luke was late missing the warm-up per usual.

LOVE CHOKE’s

For the remainder of the class we position-ally drilled the back exercise with 2 minute rounds, you on me, then me on you exercise, until everyone had an opportunity to go with everyone. Similar to Submission Challenges or even EBI’s sudden death or over time rounds.

We tried with full lapel grips first… no dice.

Figure got shot except mine of course..:P 

Then moved to just starting with the full harness…

Positional Strangling: (2 min rnds, then switched roles)

  1. Aria
  2. New guy white belt Alex
  3. Big Rig

  5. Morgo
