Thursday the 12th of November Fundamentals
1:Tonight we started with our feet in our partners hips and we had control of their wrist,or gi cuffs(Thumbs out).We had 3 choices(1) Turn on right hip and put our knee across their belly, pull them forward for the sweep (2) They stand up and put 1 leg forward we would grab the leg,push the opposite hip back and put them on their butt(3)They came up onto 1 knee so we put out foot under that knee for the hook,pull their arms forward,and lift up that same knee for the hooking sweep.
2:Here our partner put a bit more pressure on us to pass our Guard starting form Drill 1 postion.
3:Here our partner was lying down with their knees up.We kept our left hand on their right knee,and our right hand on their left knee.Jumping around to our left,we would slide our right knee down their right thigh.We then did the same on the right side,and kept on repeating left and right.
4:Same setupa s drill 3 but this time we would use the cross grips and get opposite hands touching,then sliding down the knee.We also said “Fuck off” out loud as part of the drill.
5:Here we were standing and our partner had their feet in our hips.We would take control of the gi pants or feet depending on which side,step back,and bring our knee around to the side we wanted to pass,and put our shin against their hip.
6:Here our partner had hooks and double underhooks.We dropped our right bicep to block their left hsin and grab underneath their belt of gi jacket.Rolling them over to the left we stepped our right leg off their hook,and walked around to the left,also blocking their right leg with our left hand to side control.
7:Here our partner had us in open guard.Geoff explaind about having 2 arms in or 2 arms out to avoid things like the Triangle.We cupped our hands together in a gable grip,and hoisted our partner up onto our knees.Making a fist we pushed our right hand to the floor and flip then to the left hand side.We then ran around to the right all the way around keeping our hips low,looking for the cross face grip as we came around.
8:Same setup as 7 but this time we grabbed our partners belt,and stood up,and stepped back.Pulling thm up we flipped them over their head to all 4’s.We then came around to side back control and got the seatbelt grip,brought our left leg in line with their left leg and pulled them over and took their back,to go for a choke.
