Class 145...

A mixed class and some work on takedowns from standing, with a single leg, a double leg, and a back take with a foot tap, all of which start from the same standing position of a collar and sleeve grab. 

Single leg: Face the opposition with each having a collar and sleeve grab; two hands grab the collar grab and rip it off and stuff it down between the opponent's legs; drop down a level and, keeping the opponent's stripped arm trapped, take the left leg; then drive forward for a single leg takedown.

Foot tap: Face the opposition with each having a collar and sleeve grab; but the opponent is stiff-arming you to prevent any inward movement or grip stripping; duck under the stiff arm and take the back; then your right foot steps against his right foot and you drop to the side taking the opponent over with you.

Double leg: Face the opposition with each having a collar and sleeve grab; but the opponent is stiff-arming you to prevent any inward movement or grip stripping; duck under the stiff arm and, at the same time, pull the opponent down with the collar grip; drop down a level and, keeping the opponent down using the collar grip, reach and grab his furthest ankle, then drive forward for a double leg takedown.

We did some specific sparring, then normal sparring. I did OK at this and am starting to feel relatively comfortable again, even if I'm some way away from competency.

Things to remember: Collapsing posture with collar grip and going under stiff arm to take opponent's back.
