27 degrees outside but as someone once said " some people stay in bed and dream, while others get up and pursue their dreams".
What is my dream? To improve a little each day.
The only goal I had this morning was to not get arm barred, that failed miserably. I rolled 5 rounds and was arm barred 4 times and triangled once.
I felt great though as it was an opportunity for me to observe and roll with Coach and three purple belts.
The feedback I received was awesome in terms of what holes they saw in my game and some tips to work on improving.
Things to work on:
While mounted: focus on escaping!
use one hand to defend against chokes
use one hand to set up escape (place on upper thigh to create space)
think of your hands as "fish hooks"
once space is created, slide knee through space and hook opponents thigh
hip escape and slide other knee through to set up butterfly guard
Tail choke -
once set up, make sure to get a higher grip on lapel (opposite hand, the one not gripping the "tail" of gi).
