February: Takedowns to Guard Attacks Week of 2/1-2/6
So we competed this weekend. We did as expected with the crew. We had some did not so well, some medium, some medium well, some really good.
Kids:
Jace: Did horrible, cried on bottom for 3 full rounds and never stopped crying between matches, had an anxiety attack I feel.
Christian: Got crushed, he has some survival instincts, but needs to have basic stance fixed, multiple matches I’ve seen him have people get behind him standing. He needs to be coached in the basics.
The Ngo boy that thinks he’s too good for the beginner class: Got wrecked
Kaleb Ngo: won one lost one, great attitude and humble. still doesn’t understand undercooks on top or passing guard.
Mikayla: Won no gi 2-1. 3rd in gi 1-1 i think
Joziah: 2-1…won 3 matches got DQd for an Ezekiel after the fact…I told him Ezekiel was legal when he asked me… my fault.. he dominated.
Adults:Â
Scott Barton: performed to his level for his inability to train and being sick lately. lost two matches. Gassed, I know he hasn’t been able to train
K: Won two lost two, alot of promise
Rex: eliminated any thoughts I had about him getting a blue belt. He should be embarrassed by hisself for his no gi division. Gi he beat the same guy twice.
Kaleb: Dominated, testing for blue belt next weekend.
Curriculum:
Beginners:
Double Leg again landing into the closed guard. Touch on fundamentals of stance, break falls, and a couple of setups as the week progresses for the same double leg takedown.
Sprawls again as well.
Guard attacks:
Cross Collar and Sleeve Knee shield:
-Get back up to the feet
-Scissor Sweep
Intermediate:
-Either do failed Ouchi-Gari to a secondary takedown or a setup that leads to an Ouchi-gari
-attacks from guard involving the legs…meaning arm bar , triangle , omoplata….not guillotines, kimuras, and such.
