Noon class
I've started a new job and have not been able to attend class much these past few weeks, I played hooky today to attend training.
Class was lead by Coach B. and Coach R.
Light warmups
Learned and drilled:
Scissor guard sweeps 1,2 and 3
1 - from guard, grip lapel, grip sleeve (same side), position opposite knee across stomach and hook foot onto back of opponent, base on elbow and pull opponent towards you to disrupt base of opponent, scoot your hips close to opponent and place head near opponents shoulder, use outer leg (leg not hooked on opponent) to sweep opponent and mount.
2. from guard, same as #1, as opponent is setting up to block your sweep by placing pressure on your leg, grab opponents other hand and pull diagonally towards you, place outer leg (the one not hooked) with pinky toe facing mat to set up for rotating your hips 180 degrees, then with leg hooked flower sweep opponent and side mount. A variation of this is to remove hand from lapel and reach over back of opponent and grip under arm (use "sloth grip").
3. from guard, same as #1, at the same time (same side) pull arm and push opponents leg out and side mount.
We drilled each of these and switched partners to practice each technique.
Quote of the day from Jonathan F. "your scissor guard is looser than a prostitutes bra", with that said he showed me what I was doing incorrectly and gave me tips to work on.
Great class!
