A few classes on involving overhook attacks from closed guard.
i) Overhooks from closed guard: gives you instant omaplata and triangle options; there is also a surprise kimura option by kicking the opponent's arm up and hooking it with the other leg for the kimura.
ii) The detail of using two hands to pull the arm of the opponent in guard and collapsing his posture with the two-handed grab and the knees is important.
Sparring was OK but I was a bit haphazard. I was just rolling with little purpose, apart from simply defending.
The second class saw us work on a takedown from standing using an opposite collar grab and sleeve control. This went something like this:
i) Secure opposite collar and sleeve control; drop to side of opponent and pull him down; then leave left foot for opponent to trip over; scramble to position on top and secure combat base or pass to side.
Specific sparring was OK in this class once I remembered to get a frame in place. Normal sparring was fine, too, and I hit a wrist lock and a nice omoplata.I only got these once I secured superior position, though.
Things to remember: Drill frame basics and work on side control escapes.
