![]() The sixth and final section of the cycle are Leg Locks. The Back Control section is next and will focus on escapes, submissions and submission counters, as well as the turtle and crucifix positions that are common transitional aspects of back control. The Open Guard section will take several weeks to complete. For example, butterfly half guard, single leg X-guard, reverse De la Riva, spider DLR guard, and various others that can exist. The “hybrid guards” subsection refers to anything that combines strategies from multiple open guards. From there, the remaining open guards will each have their own respective multi-week focus, with sweeps, passes, and submission options being taught. Within half guard, there will be a focus on top half guard followed by a focus on bottom half guard. When the open guard section is reached, the first of the open guards will be half guard. The Closed Guard section will first focus on sweeps, then passes, followed by submissions and finally submission counters. Also within the Side Control section, we will teach aspects of the knee on stomach position, as well as the north/south position, as they are specific positional components of Side Control. The Mount and Side Control sections will each focus on four positional sub sections: escapes, controls, submissions, and submission counters. The Positional focus in the Advanced Class will progress linearly though each position, as outlined previously. The Fundamentals Class lasts one hour, and is broken down into three, 20 minute segments which each focus on a different technique, as shown here. Working though these, as well as Closed Guard, Open Guard and Back Control, the student will gain a breadth of knowledge in the quickest way. Next is Side Control, which also focuses on the same positional sub-sections. ![]() Beginning with the Mount position, there will be a lesson focussed on escapes, controls, submissions, and submission counters. The Leg Lock section is not included because attacks to the legs are generally not allowed in competition at the white belt level, which is for the reason of safety from injury. The structure of the Fundamentals Class follows a sequential focus of five of the six positional sections described previously, excluding leg locks. Every lesson is preplanned to make it easy for the students to know what is expected at each class, and for easy review once the lesson is completed. After 6 months, the lessons start back over and will be cycled again. The class is broken down into 26 lessons, which equates to 1 lesson per week and lasting 6 months. ![]() The Fundamentals class provides the technical foundation for new students so that they can develop an understanding of both fundamentals techniques as well as how they tie together as a whole. ![]()
