SATURDAY, 17 FEBRUARY 2018

Today's class had me, Jason, John, Tommy, Steve, and two newcomers from CCSO (Mike & Jamie).

I covered a basic way to open the guard, the basic smash pass series (around and through), the front bear-hug escape with arms trapped, and then had everyone roll.

Today, I gave a private lesson to John at the PD. We covered side-control escapes.

SATURDAY, 10 FEBRUARY 2018

Today's class had me, John, Ryan, Rebecca, and a newcomer, Tim.

I went over transitions from side control to kesa-gatame, back to side-control, and on to ichiro kesa-gatame. We then moved on to chokes from the guard, and then on to a wrestling review.

Rebecca bailed early, but the rest of us rolled before pulling up the mats.

SATURDAY, 3 FEBRUARY 2018

Today's class was just made up of me, John, Steve, and Nicole.

Full mount escapes were the flavor of the day. We worked on the basic trap arm/trap leg escape, the frame escape, and a variation of trap arm/trap leg escape.

We moved to the cross collar choke from guard, focusing on use of the wrists to achieve the choke.

John, Steve, and I rolled at the end of class.
