That’s a good question, I had to think about it. 

I look at their stance…are they low to shoot in? Are they standing straight up to attempt judo? Are they shoulder forward to attempt to grab a sleeve or lapel? Are they standing with one foot forward to bait me to shoot in for a single? 

So much information all at once. 

Butterfly guard and half guard this week! 

2 types of guard that can help your game. Whether you want to dive deep or learn a a few things this is a great week to get that intro.

As a huge fan of Judo I’m SUPER excited, this week has an amazing take down and plenty of offense. 

Don’t be late!

Had a blast at the picnic but now it’s back to work…..and this week we’re working on escaping side control.

Being stuck in side control pressure is no fun so I hope to see you at class. 

#CU@6AM!

Great week in fundamental class, going over transitioning and getting out of positions. Lots of jam packed info! 

#CU@6AM!

Lots of fun this week with the new curriculum. 

#CU@6AM!!

Fresh curriculum with some great looks at offensive opportunities….wake up early and come join me for class!

Gary’s correct that it’s strictly the sport side of things. 

Why risk getting taken down when you can pull guard and get right into the guard that you want (theoretically) so you can start accumulating points. 

Anyone that is willing to die on the hill of ‘guard pulling sucks’ should do 2 things;

1: get better at guard passing cause they probably suck at it. 

2: start a BJJ league where guard pulling isn’t allowed. 

Lots of defense in this weeks curriculum, defending yourself well will get you in great position for attacking.
