Are you getting smashed?  Do you feel overwhelmed from top? This week is a must to understand defending and escaping from top mount

I love this week in the Interm Class. We will simply One of the the most challenging topics in grappling… Side Control Escapes. 

Before you come in today make sure you watch some of the escapes on RŌL TV and het familiar with core principles

Often time we transition to Top Control yet we get bumped off and lose the position. This week we put a lot of attention on control the top, and hunting some of the attacks.  Always keep in mind one of the most important concepts in Jiu Jitsu - Position before submission

Knee on Belly... do I need to say more haha... We will connect Kimura Lock from last week with Knee on Belly. Great opportunity to build a strong attack system. 

Just so it happens both All Levels and Interm class will focus on Side Control attacks. This is a great opportunity for all students to develop a strong approach to control from the side. See you guys on the mat 👊🏻

Half Guard one of my favorites. I can’t wait to share some attacks and offensive strategies with our advanced kids. 

I will keep it short - I ALMOST DIED 😂

We invested a couple weeks into Half Guard Sweeps, let's talk about passing the Half Guard this week.  A lot of details are coming in. Be there guys! 

This is going to be a great week...

I'm back in town from California and I'm stocked about Back Control escapes in Interm Gi Class but also NoGi Inter class will talk about some Arm Drags and Take Downs. You don't want to miss those classes, it will be a good week of training. 

See you guys at RŌL
