So finally got a chance to go to a combat submission wrestling class. The bjj school I switched too has it on thursday. Guys a direct student of eric paulson, so I had to go and try it out.
I got there a tad late and missed the warm up. The part that I did get was a double leg takedown drill from over hand. the rest of the class was focus on drilling finishing an opponent you've downed with a clean shot using either a sub, or ground and pound from a positon they couldnt' defend against.
I started jits at an MMA school- where i fostered a lot of bad habits learning too punch while grappling. So it was very refreshing to get some striking into my game while still having to use jits now that I've had much more experience.
once we got to the rolling aspect of class. the drill was basically top guy wants to keep opponent on the ground and pepper him with strikes or submit him.
bottom guy is suppose to either submit him or escape to feet.
I felt that the gracie combatives aspect that we trained really helped in this area against a lot of the other guys. However once the actual MMA fighters or the coach got involved, It wasn't as easy to escape. I really had to remember where my hands were at all times to avoid the KO blow.
all in all I really liked it. the subs we went over were a different take on a lot of different ways. especially the leg locks we went over,and dealing with aspects like guys wearing wrestling shoes while fighting me - though painful, was very street applicable I feel.
Looking forward to more of this.
has anyone else ever done CSW classes before? Was the training format similar?
