today-

BJJ nite:

Drilled moving from full guard to high guard and worked the triangle from there. Spent time drilling a no-hands triangle familiarization drill as part of the process.

Started free roll with 15 min of working guard passes. Guard man uses no hands and was encouraged to open the game up and not squeeze in to hold full guard. All passes were on for the top guy. Great drill.

Finished with 30 min of free roll.
