We’ve been working on our armbars a lot this month… today we got very MICRO in our focused study on keeping the armbar position and connections, allowing a secure container for the endless possibilities!

Super fun class tonight continuing our Armbar studies (and continuing to reinforce “WHAT MUST BE TRUE”!) about them… including from the most dominant position of fighting: back control!

Swipe, only if you want to see the appearance we put for the normal world to see! 🙃

Another fun one for the books tonight! Got to keep nerding out on ALL THINGS ARMBARS tonight with the crew! This week we are focusing on the mount position and coming off of Coach Coco’s Monday night intro into the S-Mount position, we continued with the little things that make all the difference!! Heavily applying the Pareto Principle (🤓-alert 🚨 look it up 🙃) to the core principles: zipper principle, inside space principle & reboot-the-system principle…all while drawing imaginary grid lines on our opponents: elbow line, shoulder line, center line.

Oh yes, the nerds of the world are getting stronger! 🤓💪and more lethal! 🫣🙃

Sounds like your idea of a good time? Come find out how we will create an army dangerous- hard to kill- and kindest nerds you’ll ever meet in Ellijay! 🙌

This has become the absolute best way to kick start the weekend! Friends.. Tribe… Community…

In a world where everyone can find something that makes them different from the rest.…. Lean into the sameness in us… the desire for connection, play, curiosity, growth, encouragement…. The list can actually go on and on and on… and you help make it so, by living your own experience too! 🙌💚

Good night on the mats tonight 💚

Always grateful for this crew… the reps, the laughs, the constant push to get a little better each time we step in.

Big welcome back to Daniel!! glad to have you back in the room, man. It matters.

April’s been all about surviving the worst spots… learning how to stay in the fight when things aren’t going your way.

Now we turn the corner…

As Justin Timberlake would say: it’s gonna be May and we’re shifting to submissions.
Finishing mechanics. Control → pressure → endgame.

If you’ve been riding the wave with us, keep going.
If you’ve been watching from the outside… this is your invite.

Come train.

tonight we went full nerd mode on guard recovery from side control…dialing in the micro details that actually make the difference…

👉not just what to do, but why it works!
📐 FRAMES: where they win, where they fail, and how to make them do the work for you
🦐 HIP ESCAPES (pushing & pulling shrimps): not just movement… but intention + direction
❌ COMMON MISTAKES: exposed and cleaned up in real time

and the big one…
‼️Don’t just escape‼️ - threaten on the way out
.because if all you do is defend… you stay in the conversation…but when you add offense?
you start ending it.

side quest unlocked: turned the squad into a full trading card lineup… apparently XP carries over from the mats 🎮✨

refine. align. ascend. 🔁

Another fun class digging a liiiiiitttle bit deeper into our understanding of inside space and connection! Tonight’s focus was on the big game changer: THE UNDERHOOK!
🙌
“Frames buy time. Underhooks get you out.”
🙌
Always fun upgrading with the OG crew and exploring/troubleshooting together! 💚

Somewhere between getting smashed… and figuring it out…is where the magic happens!

Last night we started digging into: The Underook.

not just grabbing it… but understanding it.

Where it lives.
How to earn it.
How to keep it.
And what it actually does once you have it.

Because the underhook isn’t the escape…
it’s the doorway.

Last nights focus was all about getting off their back, building height, finding options.

…

Also awesome having Kris back in the room from the NGMA fam —
always a favorite, and always brings great energy 👊

And somehow we finished it all off with one of those North Georgia sunsets
that just hits different…

Good training. Good people. Good perspectives shared.

If you’ve been thinking about starting 👉 this is your sign.

Come get a little better… one rep at a time.

…to infinity and the mats ♾️🟩

Another phenomenal class tonight at EJJ. We are learning to RELAX in bad positions..
👉Where some panic.
👉Where some breakdown.
👉Where some frantically make mistakes.
But for us: we started at the beginning:
😮‍💨Breathe.
💨 Calm your breath.
🫁Calm your heart rate.
🧠 Calm your mind.

Deep breath & remind yourself: everything is figureoutable. There’s a technique of everything.

And once you’ve relaxed, you can begin variations of the same conceptual principles:
1. Retain ownership of inside space.
2. Get to an athletic position.
3. Advance.

Slow the game down and you will double down on your understanding of technique…of principles… of fundamentals. And you quickly realize how incredibly valuable and NECESSARY they are!

Excited to dive deeper on Friday! You should join us and start getting comfortable in uncomfortable situations… and be uncommon among the uncommon! 🙌💚
