Keith ran the class this day… he had us rep a back take entry from closed guard tricep and cross collar control to both foot on the hips sit up to back take. I partnered with Morgo… great stuff. We essentially worked on this for an hour. Then rolled lol great stuff….
Rolled with Morgo, Evan, Tony then Luke??

Technique was a guard break that involved trapping the arm.
Rolling was 10 minute rounds. Travis, Rupert, & some really big tall guy, think his name was Evan… as big and tall as big red. Definitely newer… weird how they always ask for the roll. Great stuff, tough rounds. Guy’s weren’t letting up lol… giving it their all.
We had a newer attendee. Tyler Duke, wow is this dude is big… think he’s a cop. Great stuff though, lots of potential and willingness to learn. Warm-up was standard, on 15 min. Drilling started with hip-bump sweeps, the hip-bump to kimura, the hip-bump to kimura to Omaplata’s. Then it was the pendulum sweep, then pendulum to arm-bar. Finishing with the scissor sweep, then scissor to mount x-collar choke. Great stuff… 1 min bangers. Next we reviewed the tripod sweep which moved into a chain of progressive control and attacks. Sweep, mount, side s-mount, harness, wing-choke, bow-choke, arm-bar. We’ve been working on this, piece by piece for the past few months on Sundays. The guys that show up get it… its beautiful to watch lol. We followed-up with troubleshooting issues everyone had, then 6×5 min rounds of hard rolling. Even class meant I only got to roll when Gare bear tapped himself out lol… think he was mad at me for something lol…. home boys gotta learn to be able to pace themselves lol. Oh well, here to coach. Small sacrifices for a better good. Helping BJJ grow as a whole. I get lots of rolling in during the week still, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays… most often Fridays. At least I come in at 9 am on Sundays to get conditioning in… or whatever you want to call it lol.
Clip of me pushing the homies a little this Sunday, grinding below… lol
Got to LEMMA around 5:45 pm… made sure to slap on my shin guard. Great stuff lol… oh and chugged a bunch of coffee.
Maybe I should…
BJJ as a career? lol
Viable?
Possibly?
Fun? Absolutely #pipedreams
Kid Lightning ran the warm-up with a bunch of tumbling, forward/reverse shrimping, and forward/reverse rolling. He then had us review the double under-pass to darce… lovely. Ironically he hit it in his cage match this past weekend, with no arm. Neat. Almost looks like a N/S choke. Well a little bit of both. Variation ninjama stuff.
Great stuff though. Beautiful in fact… seeing BJJ work in the cage. Kid is a great inspiration to me… motivated me. Ever since i started, way back on 2008 lol.
