Open Guard
with Ben Poppleton
10th – 11th July
If you have problems with developing an open guard game, then at this camp we’ll be looking at the classic, “collar and sleeve”, position. It’ll be an in depth study into the specifics and mechanics of foot, hip, and hand positioning from this classic “Old school” guard.
We’ll be developing gripping strategies, plus hip, foot and hand mechanics, to break the posture, and gain control of our opponent. Allowing for sweeps and submissions. All tactics, mechanics, and techniques which Ben learnt over decades, from being smashed by dozens of world champions, olympians and legends of the Gracie family.
Leg Lock Immersion
with Lloyd Cooper
28th – 29th August
2 Day intensive camp with LLoyd ‘Yorkshire Gripper’ Cooper. Learning and developing proper leg locks.
Mauricio Gomes
14th – 15th August
It isn’t often you get the chance to train and learn from someone that has experienced the infancy of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. This is that chance! Mauricio Gomes needs no introduction. 8th Degree white and red belt. Over 50 years experience. Father and coach of the GOAT Roger Gracie.
