Arm-Drag & Back-Mount (diary entry)

18.07.2023 My early morning lesson saw the start of a new client for a short course of submission grappling lessons. This client is visiting the area for a month and, having trained in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for a little while, was keen to keep up her grappling training. Her work has been exclusively gi-work and she was keen to cover some no-gi training. After my warm-up dynamic exercises and sport-specific callisthenics I introduced the arm-drag. This was a great way to discuss certain emphasises in no-gi training. Without having the cloth material to grip, fighters have to rely more on deeper grips and positioning. We drilled the action of taking the arm from a standing position. Next, we took it to butterfly guard where we used it take the back-mount. From back-mount we looked at getting the rear naked choke and I also covered the body triangle. We also trained getting the rear naked choke with only one hook in place. https://clubbchimera.com/services/
