Three Thoughts from This Week
Work Shop Added to Skool
Just added the Sunny Dojo Escapes Work Shop that I did this past Wednesday. Escapes are always an interesting thing. As a coach, they aren’t sexy to teach, so sometimes we neglect teaching them over submissions and passing for example.
I’m looking to sure up how efficient the students apply escapes.

Friday Classes
Taught my first Friday night class at Five Peaks, good turnout. I’m looking to continue to build on what teach at the previous work shop. The next time I teach on a Friday, I’ll be reviewing how I attack arm bars from various positions.
Should be a fun one!
Currently Playing Ghost of Yōtei
Not sure if anyone has played the Ghost series, but I LOVE both Ghost of Tsushima and Ghost of Yotei. I haven’t done much of the main story yet, instead running around hacking, slashing, and leveling up.
Its genuinely a visually gorgeous and all around fun game.

Chest Over Chest Passing Concept Breakdown
This is a breakdown I did on Gordon Ryan’s Chest Over Chest passing approach.
Approach at an angle with one leg between both of theirs.
Balanced approach so you’re not swept.
Make your opponent carry your weight.
Shift as necessary, forcing them to work.
Thank you for reading.
