With Little Bro at Black House

Taps: 0. Total: 276. Very mellow rolls. But Lil Bro Brown did give me some awesome details on a couple techniques I was having trouble completing.

Rope Pass (Half or Open Pass) - Tips/Details.
1. Get off my knees and onto my toes; and shoulder down for shoulder pressure (smash the knees down)!
2. Collar grip (to keep him close and prevent him from moving back and creating escaping space).
3. Get my head down into his chest (so he can't push my head away).
4. Walk my legs up for the pass.

Knee Slide Pass - Tips/Details
1. Squat low, put knee pressure and if he grips my sleeve, go with it and get chest collar grip and connect my elbow to knee.
2. Shoulder against his chest, no space.
3. If his hands push against my lead knee, pull up on his sleeve and knee goes downward, away from him for the pass.

Things to Work On:
1. Defense -- relax. Don't hold so tight. Don't use so much strength. Conserve energy. Use technique.
2. Practice HOLDING POSITION (instead of automatically going for Subs).

Holding Position - Side Control.
P1 -- Left hand under his neck; Right hand on mat, against his near hip; knees of the mat, on both toes.
P2 -- Right knee against his near hip (where Right hand was); Right hand over and on other side, with elbow against far hip.
P3 -- Kesa, but with my hip on top of his hip.
** Cycle through these basic positions, depending on how he moves and tries to escape.
