Thursday the 21st of May Fundamentals
1:We started off being on mount smothering our partner.They used their arms to push us off,giving us the gift of their arms.We put our right hand in the centre of their chest,and brought the left hand around thier right arm,and on top of our right hand.We then jumped up to a squat,and placed our left foot by their right ear.Stepping over their head with our right foot we slide down the bat pole and captured their right arm.Squeezing our knees together and welding their little finger to the centre of our chest, we lay back and bridged our hips up for the tap.
2:Here were were in side control,and our partner was defending their neck by having their arms in the centre of thier chest.With our left hand we grabbed their gi at the elbow and our it to the ground.With our right hand we placed that on the mat also and did a pushup to jump to knee ride.Posturing up straight we then stepped our left leg over,and slide down thier arm capturing it.We then again squeezed the knees together,and welded their little finger to the centre of our chest,and slowly lay back bridging the hips for the tap.
3:This time we started in drill 2 and came to knee ride,but our partner used their left hand to try and push our left knee off them creating a space.We let go of their left arm,and put our right hand through the space created,and cupped their left shoulder.Standing up now we pulled them onto our feet.Using our left foot,we stepped over to kick them in the small of the back,and spun around 90 degrees to sit in the space we created,capturing the left arm.Again squeezing the knees,welding the little finger to our chest and bridging the hips for the tap.
4:Here we had our partner in guard,and had welded their right forearm to the centre of our chest.We then opened our legs and slid our left foot into their right hip.We then did 2 things simulteanously(1) came up as if to headbutt them,and swung our right foot across their back.This spun us around 90 degrees.Keeping our hips flat, we swung the left leg over their head so the back of our knee was on the back of their neck.Again we squeezed our knees together,welded thier little finger to our chest,and bridged up for the tap.
