Thursday the 26th of March Fundamentals
1:Tonights class we started with our partner on our hooks,and we were lying on our backs.(a)We came up and got the double overhooks,pulled our partner off their base,and lay on our backs again,then came up and let them go so they were sitting on our hooks again,and lay on our backs again(b)again came up and got the double underhooks,pulled them of their base and lay back down again,then came up,let them go so they were sitting on our hooks again,and lay on our backs(c)came up again and got the right arm underhook and the left arm overhook,pulled them off their base and lay back down again,then came up so they were sitting on our hooks again,and lay back down(d)came up and got the left arm underhook and the right arm overhook,and pulled them off their base,and lay back down again,repeating the drill over and over.Note our partner would post their hands down on the mat to avoid being face planted.
2:We were in our partners guard and postured back sitting on our knees.We grabbed their gi pants at the hips and pinned them down.Bringing our elbows in we came up of our knees and shuffled back putting pressure on their legs until they came open.From here we sat on our left leg and brought our right knee up to create space.
3:In this drill we started form the end position in drill 2(in our partners open guard,sitting on our left leg and right knee was up)We grabbed their right knee with our left hand,and pinned it to the mat.We then stepped over this leg with our left leg being used as an outrigger at a 7:30 position,and our right leg would pin the left leg down to stop our partner from being able to use it.From here we used our right hand to get the underhook,and slid our right hip down to our partners left hip,then switching base to side control.
4:(Double leg under pass).We started in the postion of being in an open guard again,and we had our right knee up.We placed the knee down,and wrapped our arms around their legs(Getting a monkey grip),and hoisted their butt up so that it was sitting on our lap and their hips were off the ground.We then picked a side(right in this case) and ducked our right shoulder down,and put their left knee into their nose,and walked around to secure side control.
5:Same drill as 4 only this time we couldn’t get the monkey grip because our partner was putting pressure on our left arm.We made a fist with our right hand and placed it by their right hip.Then keeping our hips down we walked all the way round 270 degrees to their right hand side securing side control,and sometimes the crossface with their left arm.Note.The key is to keep the hips down so as not to give any space.
