SATURDAY, 2 JANUARY 2016

In addition to promoting John to purple belt, we had a regular class. One of the original members of Orange Park Wolfpack, Ethan E., is on leave from the Navy, attended today, contributed to the class, and has now trained with us twice. As always, I am happy to have him in town and training like "the old days." In case I forget, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Ethan on Monday (4 January.

We went over "palm-up/palm-down" chokes from the guard, a cross-collar choke using the bottom of the lapel into a "palm-up/palm-down" choke, a transition to an arm triangle from the previous choke, and threw in a smash guard pass variation.
