First up was a No Gi class in which we worked on triangle set-ups from full guard. The sequence went something like this:
Leg Triangle set-up as man in full guard gets sleeve control and stuffs one arm to set up attack.
Opponent defends his arm by hiding it once Leg Triangle is on.
One possible answer is to bring hips up and drag arm of opponent back across to attack.
Other possible answer is Teepee.
Other possible answer is to switch triangle by holding head of opponent to prevent his escape, then swap legs, then attacking for straight arm bar, kimura or wrist lock
We also then worked on attacking Leg Triangle from a threatened Hip Bump Sweep into a Guillotine into a Leg Triangle. We also attacked a Leg Triangle from Mount.
A good class working on essential basics.
Next up was Gi class on Transitional Guards. The real revelation here was the shin-on-shin guard and how to employ this guards at the point when you opponent puts his foot inside your guard to attack for a pass.
Shin on Shin Guard: opponent foot pummels with one leg in your open guard, underhook leg of standing opponent, bring outside leg back in and go shin to shin, in gi grab lapel and pass to hand underhooking leg. In No Gi, try to establish wrist control.
Sweeping options from here involve rolling back and elevating leg.
De la Riva: if open guard is getting passed, secure ankle control on one side, insert De la Riva hook, secure a cross grip on the sleeve of the opponent and extend with other leg to topple opponent.
Options from here: come up into base and start to pass,
We also did one work on Single X and X Guard.
Shin-on-shin Guard is something I will definitely incorporate as it is the phase I often lose opponents in if they pass my open guard.
