Review of techs -- Black Chris likes to teach the same techniques all week, which is good. That way I can more practice.

1. Drill -- Bullfight Pass to KoB.

2. Drill -- KoB to Armbar.

3. Drill -- N/S grab gi and pull him up and take Back.

Misc thoughts: You get into martial arts because of Fear. Fear of getting beat up. You want to defend yourself, be able to beat others up. But as you get better and better and truly on the Path, you become more Humble. Why is that? As you get closer to mastering your art, your Fear does not decrase, but oddly enough, it increases. You Fear the Ego, of the Ego taking over. So you counteract that by becoming more Humble, and that is the Path to true mastery.

**I cannot believe how easily and quickly Black Chris passed Black Joel's guard. Chris is two stripe Black but still. Wow. He just stood up and Bam! Passed.

Something to aspire to.
