Defense the first half of the week and offense the second half of the week. Fundamentals shouldn’t be missed this week!

What escape has saved or helped you the most? 

When I started BJJ I watched a video and they said white belts should be masters at escaping and it really stuck with me.  (It was a Gracie, I don’t remember who. Extra points if you know) 

My tip for escaping is; most people will concentrate so hard on pinning the upper body that they forget about your hips and legs. If you can swing these, you can frame with your legs and elongate your body (something else I think people forget about) 

Soooo….whats your tip for escaping?

Escaping is the name of the game this week in fundamental classes. 

Hope to see you in class!

We’ve got a couple  different chokes and how to defend against the rear naked choke this week. This is a great time to dial in those mechanics when choking someone. 😬

Lots of defense with some chokes sprinkled in for fun. 😜

Being a plumber, I have to get in odd, small spots. I’ll do a a hip escape or a kick out to to sit up or scoot out. 

Also, due to Jiu Jitsu I’m able to stay more flexible than a lot of these young whippersnappers!

I love closed guard and we’re working a lot of offense from this position this week. 

Definitely one not to miss!

Depends on what I’m working on. Also depends on my training partner. I definitely have a goal most of the time, it just gets adjusted through the rounds.

The week is halfway over but the techniques are 🔥🔥. 

Pendulum sweep is one of my favorites and looking forward to going over it.

I don’t think teaching is for everyone but I do feel you can learn from everyone. You might learn how not to do it but you’re still learning! 

Teaching, for me, is a great way to learn the ins and outs of a technique. Am I teaching the small details? Am I able to portray where your weight should be?  

Teach it, drill it, learn how to defend against it.
