Fundamentals 26 in class.

Hot, humid stinky class. Still plenty of new people coming along to class. Tonight we started by rolling in pairs. A bit messy but not too bad really. :)

Class consisted of closed guard skills and then progressed into a couple of responses to our partners mistakes.

• When our partner attempts a basic pass, we control his arm and collar and perform a basic sweep
• When they attempt a basic pass, but leave their foot too close to us, we control the arm and the foot and perform a leg grab rollover sweep.
• as a variation to the above, we armbar from that position rather than sweep. Control the arm, swing our leg, and bridge our hips to secure the arm.
• Our partner places 1 hand between our legs, (behind their back), in an attempt to open our legs, we control his arm, open our legs and cut hard on the back of his neck with our leg, to perform a triangle choke.

Next week is the first 45split. Starting Monday , anyone who has been to a few weeks of Fundamentals can step into the first 45 minutes, and stay on for the second 45 mins if they want a bit of grappling time. Anyone can do either class, it's not compulsory to do both if you don't have the time or energy. You must have a Gi to grapple!!

See you Sunday.
