Thank you Jeb,

That is an excellent drill, with amazingly helpful detail. I really enjoy your tone and approach. 

I will have students work it this week.

You're very welcome! Thank you for the feedback! I like using it as a platform for different entries and takedowns. Love to see any variations and modifications you find useful!

All the Best,

Jeb

Wow, what an information rich video; lots of interesting details to consider.

Great idea to have the drill transition full circle around your partner.

I was thinking Heian-Sandan most of the time and sometimes Gankaku. Had to grin when you referred to the Kosa-Uke at the beginning of Heian-Sandan.

The way you put the sleeper hold on remembered me of sleeping with my head on my arms at my desk back in school. Maybe that's what the name comes from. ;-)

Thank you for sharing. I will return to this frequently.

All the best,

Marc

I wanted it to have the feeling of constantly staying one step ahead of their natural responses by simultaniously attacking balance, center/attack line, and get to a better position. Can add dirt (strikes, mock vital point grips, progressive resistence) to make it more fun.

Heian/Pinan Sandan on all the arm drags and  choke entry.  Pinan san has great techniques inside clinch range as Abernethy Sensei's Pinan/Heian  series as a fighting system says. Chinto/Gankaku has many of the same limb clearing techniques a Pinan Shodan but different footwork but great for initial crash and entry.

:-) It could be! Fingers,eyes, toes and groin are the first places I get pressure tested when actualy applying the choke. I want to keep them hidden till they dream up a better escape!

all the best,
