SATURDAY, 20 MAY 2017

Today's class had me, Jason, Ryan, Rebecca, and Tommy.

We went over four mount escapes (foot lift, foot drag, high bridge, and foot grab to half-guard. I also showed a few attacks from mount to neutralize defenses.

I rolled with Jason & Ryan.

Today's class had me, Nick, Jason, John, Tommy, and a "let's try this out" participant named Emily.

I went over two closed-guard openings, the basic smash pass, the X-pass, and two basic mount escapes (bridging and frame escapes). I then had the students roll.

Thanks to Jason for training with Emily during her first class.

SATURDAY, 6 MAY 2017

Saturday's class consisted of me, John, Ryan, Tommy, Jordon, and a newcomer named Andy.

The main instruction of the day was the X-pass series, which I broadened to include a defense against X-guard implementation and a pass in case the X-guard is achieved.

We then rolled for 30 minutes or so (Andy chose to sit out to see how we practice).

Since AFR had promotions set for 10:30 a.m., we did not stay too long after 10 a.m., though a class enquiry was made by an outside individual who was there for the promotion ceremony.
