Saturday Sweat

Open mat, two weeks in a row! Woo!

I warmed up with Caleb, a brand new kid. Just trying to get moving and trying new things that we’ve worked on recently (or not so recently).

Harris grabbed me next, which meant that play time was over, or just beginning, depending on how you look at it. I used my usual plan with him. Get on top, and try to stay on top. Next round I took a little break, then had Eric. It went well enough, very active on both sides anyways.

Next was Erin, who recently got her blue belt. More moving and working on things with her too. At the end of the round I showed her the pendulum sweep. She had set up an armlock, but I defended and she didn’t know any options from there.

I had promised Corey a round, so he got the next one. Similar to Eric, plenty of movement. Popsicle was last up, and as usual, he put it on me. He’s a tough tough roll.
