Classes 403-404...

A Gi Beginners Class in which we worked on the armbar, omoplata and leg triangle attack combination.
Double Armbar from Closed Guard: opponent is in your closed guard, go for cross collar choke, hip escape body out, opponent places both hands on your hips to escape choke, grab his hands, cross your legs behind his head in a high guard, close knees on his elbows for tap.

We also worked on a Hip Bump Sweep to Arm-in Guillotine to Leg Triangle.

Next up was a Gi Advanced Class. We worked on three passes from top half half guard. 


Tripod Pass from Half Guard: Flatten opponent and collect near-side arm and pull it up; move head to other side of opponent's head; tripod up using head, free leg and free arm, work leg free using other leg, pass to side.

Leg Untangle Pass from Half Guard: Flatten opponent out, come to side with your back facing opponent and isolate his arm, grab his belt and pants, bring leg out to knee, switch hips and the direction you face, kick leg off and come to side

Armbar from Reverse Scarfhold: grab your own pant leg or belt to secure isolated arm, then using your other arm to push the trapped hand of the opponent away for the tap.

Stretch Out Leg Untangle Pass from Half Guard: Flatten opponent out, come to side with your back facing opponent and isolate his arm, grab his belt and pants, edge yourself backwards to create space for leg to escape past knee, switch hips and go to quarter guard, then go to mount.

Sparring was fine but it got worse as I got more tired. I got tapped by a decent white belt who got me in a head and arm triangle when I had him in lockdown. It was a good move by him, but I was too tired to defend it. On the plus side, it made me go home and look up escapes from arm triangles.
