Aikido:  8:45 - 9:45 am.  Loosening, then panda rolls backward and forward.  They are starting to make more sense now.

Katatetori ikkyo/sankyo, ura and omote, with standing and kneeling pins.

 

Taekwondo:  5:45 - 6:30 pm.  Traditional Class.  I taught this class.  I worked a lot with the white belts throughout the class, mostly on coordination.  I did get some concentration kicking in before class started.

 

BJJ:  6:45 - 7:45 pm.  Three warm-up rounds.  I think I worked through some things pretty well during these rounds.  I tried to keep better pressure.  After warming up we drilled guard from the seated position, starting with just keeping heels connected to hips, moving around, following the top player and reconnecting.  We progressed to getting hooks in when the opportunity presented itself, then progressed to top player trying to pass (but not mount) and bottom player trying to destabilize.  We finished working hooks with the top player kneeling, bottom getting connected to the body and pulling them over onto the hooks or use the hooks to push their hips away, then worked to destablize.
