Crucifix from Side Control

Cool Move

Shoulder Walk

Private Class

We worked defense to guard passing.  The key is to dictate your moves--don't react.  If your guard is about to get open, you open it into a sweep instead of being passive.

We worked take downs, of course.

Some de la riva stuffs happened too.

Sometimes a strong drag can get a takedown.

From the turtle:
  Clock choke  Whew!
  Trap arm and roll

All that I needed.

This class turned no-gi but still focused on a lot of what I need:
  grip fighting (from standing and in guard)
  getting the underhook when top opens your guard (a form of grip fighting)
 
Lots of drilling.  Good stuff!
