Classes 238 & 239...

Two early morning classes focusing on half guard from a high frame. These were:

Man on bottom keeps a knee in shoulder of the opponent and elbow connecting to knee; shifts up on hip with right hand posting on opponent's arm to prevent head control; use knee to push opponent off and attack for the underhook; secure head on belly/chest of opponent with left arm holding hip around waist of opponent to secure head position.

From here there are several options:
attack for the back
opponent uses whizzer; then clamp down and sweep to same side as trapped leg and arm
knee tap and drive into side control

Other options are also to go deep under and secure hip control and rock one way or the other to attack the back.

If opponent tries to smash pass using knee grab, then secure hand on knee and sweep using rocking method. 

Sparring was OK. I was paired with higher belts and did OK.

I also did some work on overhook position using the kimura and the guillotine.
