More BJJ in the Dojo

Another week, another 2 sessions of Brazilian Jui Jitsu for the girls! 10 year olds learning how to defend them selves and lay a serious beatdown on any boys that come wihtin their perimeter! I still think we average more "owies" than the typical dojo.

Let's start with some shrimping.




Last week we learned the Kimura from guard, this week we start with the Americana from side.


Then a Kimura from side, starting to put some flows together. Notice that McKenna is still more interested in being on camera than in a submission.


Here's McKenna putting a Kimura on Rachel.


Here's a pretty sloppy finish! (Daddy!!!! This is only week 3, give us a break)




At the end I turned them loose to do some live grappling. Since we don't have to much in our arsenol yet the goal is to stay on top if you are on top OR get on top if you are on bottom. McKenna was able to get 2 sweeps in the 1 minute round.



Rachel retruned the favor and got a sweep on McKenna, if you watch it almost looks like McKenna is having more fun letting Rachel sweep her, gotta find a way to get those cometitive juices flowing. McKenna was also able to get past Rachel's guard once! (During the 43-45 second range you can see McKenna acting like her mommy!)
