I went to Gi class today. We did passing guard drills. England got his blue belt today. I finally got past England's guard. He did give me some tips that helped. We did half guard drills as well. I rolled for like 10 minutes against a guy 35 pounds heavier than me and 4 inches taller. I was dominated but didn't get submitted. A small victory for me! Unfortunately, I also sprained my thumb.
July 28th we had a 2 hour no gi seminar with Fred Leavy. A few things that he taught us: Arm lock - Hold arm like a shotgun. Right hand on opponents right elbow, left hand on opponents right tricep, right foot on opponents left hip, roll over onto right side and place your left know on your opponents right elbow for arm lock submission. Single leg take down - hold leg like a rear naked choke. Rear naked choke from back - figure four one leg instead of getting both hooks in. Bring shoulders back and breath in when doing the choke. Guillotine choke - if someone is latched onto one leg, get hand around neck, make a fist, grab your own fist, lean chest on your opponents head.
