09.02.2022 Wednesday's last lessons were junior MMA and senior Submisison Grappling. In the former, we revised all four of the MMA combinations we have been covering. Then we went straight into 4 x 2 minute rounds of sparring. The first two rounds were boxing only, specifically designed to encourage my client to improve his head defence. Next week, when we have a longer combined private lesson, I will involve more head movement drilling as well as some ground work. The second two rounds were MMA. The senior lesson looked at the rubber guard. We began with just getting used to the position and how to set it up with good hip movement. From here we looked at some basic sweeps, moving onto chokes, shoulder locks, arm-bars and the gogo-plata choke. For the gogo-plata we looked at both pushing the head down and also using the forearm to set up the technique. The lesson finished two rounds of specific sparring, defending with and attacking the rubber guard. https://clubbchimera.com/services/
