Training report: Mount and S mount

First class of our new cycle for semester 2.

Topic of the week was Mount for fundamentals and S mount for the more advanced members.

Tuesday was Mount escapes and concepts

Thursday was Mount submissions such as Americana and arm bar.

We had the usual situational rolling from the weekly week (Mount).

Couple of rounds of Tachi waza (fight for takedown).

Then each training concluded with normal rolling (ne waza).

NEWS

Also we have the opportunity to compete in a submission only even next month.

We do not talk too much about competition during classes.

We rather concentrate on teaching.

So if you want to compete, do not wait for the instructors to mention it.

Grab the opportunity and enter.

Please let us know as we need to free our week end to corner you and also prepare you as well.
