BJJ Fundamentals 29 in class.
I seriously think that we've reached capacity! 29 was just about too many for the mat, but we managed. It really looks like the emails are paying off this year and many more people are learning how fantastic BJJ is.
Started class where we left off on Sunday.
Side control. This time we attempted a forearm choke, quite a few of the new guys got it pretty quick but the finer points we missing so I decided to change tack.
As I spent a bit of today watching Gracies in Action and after Craigs performance on Sunday, it felt right to cover the most basic response to being mounted.
From side control, as with thr transition to knee ride from Sunday, this time we carried onto mount. Then shuffle under their armpits. From there encourage them to cover up. Then use our body to help then roll over to their knees. Insert our hooks, control their forearm, and then flatten them onto their face.
From this position with then face down on the mat, apply a rear naked choke. This drill is the simplest most basic response to subduing a fighter with little knowledge of the intricacies of ground grappling.
See you all Sunday. :)
