Training report: Jiu Jitsu Chess, side control

By -
We did one step roll for warm up.
It is called chess game.
One person makes one move at a time.
The goal is not to win but to see opening and try techniques that you would not usually use when you are sparring (because you just do not want to lose).

Then we drill 2 recompositions from side control.



Also we went over the flower sweep and a moditfied flower sweep to triangle.



Then we did hip bump sweep and a modified hip bump sweep to triangle. that move was made popular by Ryan Hall.

Topic of the day was side control

We study the concepts of side control based on the drills


 
 


We did a few submissions from side control: american, kimura, arm triangle.



Situtional rolling from side control

Then normal rolling






Next competition is on 8th November.
Sparring format will change. 2 minutes stand up (tachiwaza), 3 minutes ground (ground), 1 minute stand up to conclude the round.
If you have any knee injury. Please let me know. Sparring will start from 6.45 pm instead of 7 pm. We will still follow our normal topic of the day for training.
Even if you are not into competing , please remember that your team mates always appreciate and need that one more round of sparring to prepare them.
No matter what.
See you on the mats.

Thursday is NOGI and topic is Knee on the belly.

As we are getting closer to graduation, students that are not getting promoted to the next belt will likely to receive stripes instead. If you do not have a black tab on your belt, we cannot give you stripes. Why do we have stripes? The Gracies decided to have a stripes system in order to be different from Judo. As it takes 1-3 years between belts, it is nice to receive stripes once in a while. How often do we give stripes? It is usually done during graduation which is usually held twice a year (August and December). What if you miss the graduation event? No worries, we will give them during the following classes.   How many stripes can I get? You can get up to 4 stripes. Is there a minimum number of stripes in order to get the next belt?   No, in fact some schools do not bother with stripes. You can move to the next belt even if you do not have any stripes. What is the red tab for? It is for the instructors. A blue

The curse of the blue belt

I will teach you a black belt magic trick in Jiu Jitsu. If you want a student to disappear: give him a blue belt. It is recurring event in the life of an instructor and a club. If you think the drop out of white belts is bad enough, the ratio of drop out of the blue belts is worst. I am not sure if I agree with statistics on this picture. But the issue is not really about arguing about the percentages of drop out but more on discussing the reasons for such drop out and what we can do to prevent it.  Reasons for the drop out: It takes a long time to achieve a blue belt. It average between 1-3 years. After 1-3 years of training, people loose interest and wants to start a new sport or hobby. The goal of the student was to achieve the blue belt and not the black belt. Personal situations changes over the years. Lot of people that start training are young single males with disposable income. Lot of them are at university level or are single. Add a few more years and they
