SATURDAY, 5 OCTOBER 2024

Today was an actual TAUGHT class with me, Jason, Josh M., Sam, and Brady.

I covered the cross collar choke from guard, Kimura, a modified arm wrap choke, and reverse arm bar.

We got in 12 total rounds.  Jason got a very cool reverse arm bar on me.  Also, I replaced the earned stripes on Sam's belt and places that first stripe on Brady's that was earned a while back.

Sam's Recap:

Recap-Prof. Jason, Josh Moss, young Brady and I all participated at Dojo Compton today. 

The day started with everyone's thoughts on Statistics courses in college and ended with my charmed BJJ existence of a life without Bread cutter chokes coming to a rather abrupt end. 

We started innocently enough with chokes and arm bars from guard being taught. Prof even threw in a Kimura. Then rolling began.
 
Jason, Josh and Brady all rolled rather athletically. I remember thinking how graceful they all looked. Then Prof and I rolled and it looked more like the Spartan army methodically sacking a small defenseless village manned by peasants who hadn't even bothered to beat their plows and shepherd hooks into spears or swords. 

Prof executed not one, not two, but three (THREE!) bread cutters on me in a span of five minutes. He even added insult to injury by applying a wrist lock. I wasn't going to admit to the wrist lock since the rest of the group had lost interest in watching me get pummeled and had their heads turned, but for the sake of the integrity of the recap, I have to note that it happened. 

At the end of the day, prof re-taped our belts and I couldn't help but wonder if he was putting three stripes on my belt to signify my rank or the aforementioned chokes I had just suffered under his hands. 

All and all another good day of BJJ.
