Class 117 was an open mat session and a chance to roll with a very experienced brown belt, who jumped on a few things I left open, but also let me have a bit of an experiment with a few kimuras from various positions.
I also then rolled with a newish white belt who I suspect was not quite so new. But we tapped each other and it was fun and we also drilled some basics.
Class 118 was a beginners class. After the usual warm-up, we worked on an armbar, an armbar defence and a sweep from armbar defence combination. This went something like this:
i) Armbar attack from guard: secure arm, foot on hip, hand on face, spin out, attack arm with hips.
ii) Opponent in guard defends attacked arm by wrapping, then stands to stack and pressure man on bottom.
iii) Hands of man on bottom switch so spare hand grabs opponent's collar to secure his stacked position, then other hand grabs leg from behind and collapses top half and elevates leg and rolls opponent over into armbar.
Things to remember: Work the combination because it's a good counter to a counter.
