Class 352...

An advanced gi class. Here’s what I picked up...

Knee on Belly Switches: start in side control and secure collar grab and hand on belt; sit up on haunches and go to knee on belly with other leg basing out; use knee on belly to pin opponent, then swap knee position; former knee on belly then bases out; hand positions swap. Drill repeats and you move from side to side. 

Kimura from North/South: pin one side of opponent with chest to chest, with one leg straight and outside leg basing out; on pressure side, scoop outside arm under arm of opponent with palm face up; move to knees and bring opponent's arm up so he is on his side; then connect hands for kimura grip and finish kimura. 

Option: If opponent defends by linking hands, then step over and drop into armbar.

Other option: Switch kimura grip by holding both own biceps to create a unit, then stepping over head of opponent and wrenching it out. 

Sparring was fine. I played with omoplata and triangles. I also found it is easier to connect hands for Ezekiel if done in wrong order.
