Deep Half Guard: Beginner Adults, Adv Youth & Adults

Beginner Kids: Half Guard- Instruct them on the importance of the under hook. how with the undertook the top player passes and with the under hook from the bottom, the bottom player can sneak to the back  when the top player is attempting to play chest to chest. get them in the mindset of always pummeling on the same side that their leg is trapped (top)

Basic Deep Half and how to pull and play should be taught. Run the pipe and out the back door pulls from half guard

ADV: Getting to Deep half from the previous use of DLR/Lasso/Spider. I’d like to see sit up guard being utilized to hit the pull

You may see me get In to stuffing sit up guard from the top

Hey guys, hope everyone is off to a good start to the summer

Word of the month: Immersion- to completely engulf oneself in an activity. Absorbing involvement

Let Summer be the time we Immerse ourself into our Jiu Jitsu. It’s often a time where we feel the need for a break, kids are out of school, no need to continue to work right? WRONG. This is the time to sharpen ones skills, and surprise all of those that slacked all summer. let’s get better, and for our adults lets focus and aid those that are testing in July.

 

We have Tyler and Andrew out this week. Next week Blue is gone M-W and I  have pending days next week I’ll be out at the AF academy and Ft Carson to aid with the Master Instructor Course for Combatives.

Jesse has a fight agreed for the 28th of August. Let’s prepare hard, so the fight is easy.

 

After our Adult Fundamental JJ sessions we will have heavy drilling for the test material.

With that said, Let’s Segway out of that and begin by going over moves that are listed on the green and blue exam. It’s ok to be random. TD, Guard Pass, Sub.  Sub, Sweep, Pass, just do anything and get the students involved.
