Definitely self defense. I don’t remember who said it, “advanced techniques are fundamental techniques done really welll”, but it really stuck with me. I think if you have the basics down it makes the sport side easier. 

Chokes and kimuras this week, if you like submissions this is a great week to be at fundamental classes.

A new bag to carry my stuff in. 

I think I’m running short on spats, which is weird cause I usually buy them as a set. 🤷🏻‍♂️

It depends if my wife is able to see this…🤔

Favorite brand is probably war tribe. They have a lot of sub-sizes and I have a hard time fitting regular sizes. 

We’re getting started on the fundamentals block in guard. Closed guard is one of my favorites, looking forward to sharing small tips that have helped out over the years. 

Lovato jr would be sweet. 

Top of my list would be Rickson, Roger Gracie-no subject. . 

Adam Wardziak Jonathon Thomas,  and Marcelo Garcia-would want to talk to them about their individual guard games. 

Short week this week for the 6am class! 

I’d love to see some fresh faces this Tuesday morning, I know a lot of people have the week off. 😎

2 joint locks from Mount that are on the WBMK evaluations. 💪

LARRY SKINNERits true!saddle, 50/50, I can’t keep up with this madness! 

Russell Usauskas I know, that door was opened the first roll we ever had together. That conversation will go down in Rol history. 🤣

I feel I’ve been very good at escapes cause that was my main focus as a white belt. And then professor Russell Usauskas started teaching advanced footsies…..now I get caught in strange foot configurations on a regular basis.
