Open Guard Retention/Passing

Game #1: Create and Break Connections

Game #2: Open Guard Sweeping

Top player attempts to open their partner’s guard and immobilize one of their partner’s legs for 3 seconds. Bottom player attempts to sweep and maintain guard.

This session focused heavily on opening the closed guard. Some IP lessons were mixed in to test retention: hip switch opening, wet dog, and the rolling back take.
