Notes:

Today,
We are performing a mini promotion day.

Afterward, we look at continuing from mount escape to further advance our position.
Having freed up our legs to either reset our guard or into seated guard, we’ll look at the butterfly sweep and x-guard to advance our position.

Butterfly sweep
1. From worst position – flat on back
2. Support opponent via framed arms, lock opponents feet using both feet (counter forces)
3. (Shrimp out) Raise yourself onto your elbow
4. Ankle hook using same side ankle, bracing staff/over grip of back belt, posting far side hand/arm to ground
5. Raise onto hand, adjust base with small butt skootch
6. Raise ankle lock to sweep (using under hook belt grip if avail).

X-guard
1. From full mount, Shrimp out and pull in shin past groin
2. Displace opponents base via label pull (weight shift) and raising his hips
3. Scoop under near side leg, cup over your shoulder hold grip.
4. Far side foot goes in opposite direction from rear entry, creating ‘X’
5. Extend the X to stretch out opponent, release grip on lapel
6. a) pull cuff (if grip available) to drop opponent face first to mat OR b) come up on single leg for take down

Notes:

Today, we review/drill Feb 13 class of Butterfly sweep intro and look at the DLR time permitting.

Please review the detailed steps from Feb 13 class for the BFS.

A. DLR (de la riva):
1. from open guard, lasso leg around opponents leg, from outside, back into groin.
2. clasp opponents ankle with grip (optional: grip of pant cuff)
3. there are many sweep/attack options from this position. We will look at the back take.
4. the back take from DLR:
5. using a pendulum effect, use your DLR leg to swing your entire body towards opponents back.
6. using your new position, grab opponents belt from his back
7. insert your opposite foot into back of previous ankle which was gripped
8. use inserted foot to fully rotate yourself exactly to 12-6 o’clock position with opponent (you should be facing his back now)
9. Lastly, raise your opponent up using both legs to drop individual into your pocket, securing his waste/seat belt grip.

Video 1: https://youtu.be/75FyekoMtlQ
Video 2: https://youtu.be/w6Y4JVZKHnA

Notes:

Today,
We look at a gold certified move set that takes one from a position of control (DLR) to one of two options (among others) for submissions.

1. DLR: Please see previous weeks long notes for DLR details
2. Pay special attention to a drill we’ll practise today, moving from one side DLR to the other side. To create muscle memory, leg/foot sensitivity and ultimately allow you to blindfoldely submit your opponent (drill from left to right, ten times without fail. Once you drop your rod, start from 1 again).
3. From end positon of back take, option a) RNC, option b) ARM BAR

Title of class: DLX to triangle and sweep
Video 1: https://youtu.be/xpnblC73nAA
Video 2: https://youtu.be/OsnMjf-YPxc
Video 3:
Notes:

Todays class:

1. waiter sweep setup (recap)
2. DLR to triangle
3. DRL to basic sweep

For the triangle, key points:
– Using the ‘how to snap a stick’ principle, you must have one (1) force against two (2) opposing forces i.e you place a knee between your two hand grips on a branch to snap it. Similarly, you must grip the far side gi (likely collar or equivalent). The ankle pick is the second opposing force, and the DLR leg is the single other force.
– Your right leg is entirely free during the entire DLR
– Using this free right leg, you will draw it towards you, your DLR leg can rest on his hip (optionally), placing your right leg over his left shoulder
– lock the triangle with your left leg, as you square up

For the sweep, key points:
– Again using the snap stick principle, use your free right leg by placing foot on his shoulder (outward force)
– Push using pendulum rocking motion to get the sweep

* Point of clarity about last weeks class re. DLR to back take. I should mention that fully extending/’deep DLR’ auto-creates a pocket from which you can enter your right foot into to complete back take
