An amazing week ahead! Graduation will be amazing as always and is happening Saturday. DO NOT MISS IT!!!

Probably my favorite technique to teach and use is up this week. It's triangle week! Check out the work shop I taught in 2023 below. Its the exact same technique I used at Tap Cancer Out.

What’s you preference when starting standing?

Guard pull

Judo

Wrestling

I’m a fan of guard pulling because I ultimately want to end up with my partner in my guard.

I love the lapel choke from the back. I just found a new detail to really sink it in. Want to learn it too? See you Wednesday at 8pm!

This will be a fun week looking at the butterfly hook and giving us a taste of butterfly guard. 

Don’t really know what butterfly guard is? Well stop by Wednesday at 8pm to find out!

I get the most when I take a deep dive on a topic/move. I typically like to look at the attack and the defense. This lets me better understand and break everything down seeing both sides. 

I can't pinpoint 1 person. I feel like in each position there has been someone different. Lately, I seem to get a lot from people who post videos but may not be the most well known.

Time to work on those Kimuras. @ different options being shown this week. What a great way to polish up our techniques before Tap Cancer Out!

If you weren’t doing jiu jitsu is there another non-grappling based martial art you’d like to do? So no Judo, wrestling, sambo, or catch wrestling. 

I think muy Thai would be interesting to explore.

Two great chokes coming at you all this week. See you Wednesday!

My game does best with closed guard, but with your options that back has a high success level for me.

This week we look at a great sequence in fundamentals. 

We open, we pass, and we submit. All while following one of Chris Hauter’s rules. Once on top stay on top.
