Wrestling Class

Today wrestling was great. We worked the two-on-one grip on the arm.
Key points
-use both your head/shoulder when stripping their arm off your neck
-keep the momentum going forward to make the moves work

3 variations:
-scoop and stuff the head so you are controlling the head and arm, then ankle pick them
-kick up on their leg, then block and trip them *momentum must stay forward
-scoop them into a fire-man carry and dump them over top of you (work on it being more of a throw rather than a dump)

Jui Jistu I was tired. And did the class up until the rolling. I rolled with Tim and cut my foot, which ended my night a few minutes early. But I didn't mind, I feel like I got lots of good training in.

We worked on a pass that translates into a choke, using the gi and the back of the leg... It comes so naturally to me. Leo Santos is teaching this week and he saw me do the technique an he said: "wow, that's perfect!"

Now if only my body would co-operate and heal completely from cancer, I know I could be world champ. I hope to be one anyway, either way.
