Another gruelling class on single leg takedown set-ups from standing. The two techniques we played with went something like this:
I) You have a sleeve and collar grip on the opponent and he has the same grips on you. Confirm a grip on his collar grip with both hands so you are applying pressure on the wrist bone; move your posture towards the hand you are attacking; then snap the hand down as you explode up to create distance and break the grip; cross grip the opponent's collar and angle off; then shoot for the single leg with your head on the inside; take opponent down and pass his guard.

Confirm a grip on his collar grip with both hands so you are applying pressure on the wrist bone; move your posture towards the hand you are attacking; then snap the hand down as you explode up to create distance and break the grip; keep hold of the wrist and immediately drop down to shoot for the single leg; connect trapped wrist and the single leg; I drive forward to take opponent down and pass his guard.
I have a dodgy foot and I found this quite hard, but I am pretty shit at this anyway. I certainly didn't excel in the specific drilling. My guard passing and stand-up defence was OK at times, though.
Things to remember: drill the single leg.
