Sat. Class, Jan 7, 2012

Taps: 1. Total: 296.

First class of New Year.

Tech. 1 - Back Attack: Basic Collar choke.
Tech. 2 - Back Attack: Armbar.
   a. Double under, right hand grips right shoulder.
   b. Push his head away as twist to side.
   c. Left leg over his face for the armbar.


Tech. 3. - that Armbar ESC.
   a. before he sits back, right hand grips my left collar; left hand grips my right elbow, locking it in, and tighten against my chest and lock in his hand if he's got in under my arms trying for the grip break.
   b. when he relaxes, my left hand pushes his bottom leg between my legs for Half Guard.
   c. my left hand pushes top left and scoots my head over it so back of my head is on his leg.
   d. roll into him, to get top Half Guard.
   e. Get underhooks.

Bonus: Side Escape.
   From Purple John: Hand Position 1 -- left hand Underhook; right hand against his hip.
                                  Hand Position 2 -- left hand on his shoulder, lift elbow into his neck; right hand same.
    1. Escape 1: HP1 -- over shoulder bridge into him, then go to his back, or onto my knee.
    2. Escape 2: HP2 -- Hip escape twice, knee in for re-Guard; over come onto knee.

Couple of cool things I saw from Purple John: he had me in his Spider Guard, and I thought I was making progress when his knees got lowered and almost together, so I thought I could pressure them down and make my pass but he set my up with a Scissor Sweep. All because I had my weight down on him.
     The other thing: he was showing Blue Emil, a Overhook from Guard, and the guy pulls that trapped arm out, you can go easily grab that arm for an Arm Drag. Pretty slick. 

Speaking of Spider Guard, I was getting stuck and need to practice my Grip Breaks. And Guard Attacks, like armbar, and Flower Sweep and look into 93.
