Shining the apple

Just a night of review, we filmed it all. Carl played meat puppet for 2 hours non stop. Lots of retakes as we kept performing off frame. We need a camera person! Anyway Carl might be sore tommorrow. He also realised that a half hour of heavy club bell work makes the shoulders kind of tight and then really scream when they get locked.Think we will do the club bells after instead of before next time.

Throw that friggin drunk the hell out! Started off will drunk at the table not willing to leave. Extracted him with locks, small circle, pressure point stuff, face crushes etc. Moved into stand up locking and walking them out as well. Class was a blast we will be sore after.

training partner backed out….again! 2nd time this year, off to a great start.

Spent the night catching up on office work.

I decided to pay for my lazy day yesterday by building some boxes to start some plyometrics. Legs will thank me for it, I suspect I’ll have trouble walking for a few days.

more locks and lots of knife work, cutting and defending. everything CQC/

Worked on absorbing shots, absorbing and returning,absorbing and picking up a limb.  Some NLD, some more lock principles explored. Worked on  teaching Carl to control EBG by grabbing a mit full of face. The lads too gentle.

We also worked on something that made my shoulders kind of tight…no idea what . Looking forward to intu flow on Wednesday.

Well we have trained since August. I’ll try to post to the blog with a bit more frequency.

We had a relatively easy night tonight, we didn’t break a sweat. One of my goals this year is to develop a few seminars. Complete with manuals and clips. I suspect it will become a two year project.

“Self defense for women.” ………………………….(Targets women)

“Surviving in a violent world”………………………(Targets the unisex market)

“So you’re a doorman, now what?”…………………(Targets bar staff)

“Tactical Response for Law enforcement officers”…(Targets LEO’s )

So tonight I taught Carl some new shoulder locks, wrist locks, finger locks, etc. We spent a lot of time on cuffing drills. We spent some time on small circle jujitsu. We worked arm bars. All of this stating in the upright grapples some of it going to the ground. Didn’t break a sweat but I suspect he might be sore any way.

It was a good night but we are going to have to revisit this material frequently
