BJJ - 2 Hours
Advanced class followed by 1 hour of sparring. In class we worked on 3 variations of hip toss, and then a new escape from bottom side mount. Later, I was able to use this against a new blue belt, and almost had success against a purple. The technique is to bridge & shoot my arm under to the opponents belt, then extend my arm and hip escape to get some distance & get to my knees.
Had several sparring sessions, maybe 5-6. Did reasonably well. Still need to work on opening my game up some. Got to roll with Ricardo our head instructor. He's about my size, which is great.
