no- arm D'Arce?!?!

Explain please.

[tallgeese]

I guess it would be more appropriate to say, no arm in D' Arce. You're using the same motion, just without his arm involved. It's a bit less forgiving to get the blood choke this way, and can be more of a neck crank if you're not careful. What it is excellent for is creating a good transition to mount.

[MasterPain]

Oh, ok, I thought you had mastered the Dark Side and was Force-choking people Vader style.

Would this no arm darce be similair to what i call a "super guillotine" or front naked choke, where you grab your own bicep and then put your none choking hand on the back of their head. Don't know if that explains what im talking about.

[tallgeese]

It's certainly similar, especially with the hand positions. This one is very much an attack from side as a person makes an effort to roll into you though.

[tallgeese]

No Vader force chokes, but I'm hopeful that this will be imparted to me soon. GS, I've got guys coming over to roll tomorrow. I'll try to cut some video and link it for the series I'm talking about to share.

11/15

Drilled doubles and singles, running the pipe on the doubles. Drilled setting up takedowns from negative positions. Moved into lifting single leg. Finished by drilling mount maintenance.

Morning TKD: did white belt material both for my ATA and TTA curriculum, forms and one-steps, for review.

TKD class: 6:00 - 7:00. Finally back to class, and I was sore afterwards! Did basics, stretched, forms (Gwang Gae hyung), one-steps, and I kind of sparred.
