Hey guys I been at the MTS and with so many many techniques on there, which MTS should I focus on for Cora as she has only 3 weeks left of training before Kids Pan Am? Just to let you know, we are currently drilling the Lockdown and the X guard and the butterfly guard. You watched her videos, anything you can recommend that we can work on these last 3 wks to help her do well? I was told that her biggest competition is a girl from AOJ Mendes bros. camp. Possible rubber guard vs de la riva???
Hard to say. Use the MTS episode guide and the technique guide. Browse through and get some ideas.
Ep.4, Ep.19, Ep.41
I think you could infuse that kinda stuff into her game immidiately.
I think we don't have much time to do anything new. We will stick with the ones she already know, but polish it up more. She's ok with the Lockdown now, if she can use it to get 90 lb boys off of her, then I think she can get 60 lb girls off of her. Her X guard and butterfly sweep been looking pretty good, just need to drill it more. At the last tournament, they say kids can't do omoplatas, so we going to drill the Sorcerer more now. She get the invisible collar at will now, so according to the MTS, Master Eddie go to move is the Sorcerer from the invisible collar. Cora never gone this far, she usually hit the gogoplata from the invisible collar, but for this tournament, hopefully she get the Sorcerer. If she does, its going to be sick. CAn you imagine a 10 yr old pulling that off in a live tournament? I haven't seen it done yet by both adult or kids. From the looks of things, I think she is ready, but i'm still nervous.
Does she work the electric chair at all? Easy move, and super applicable if her lockdown is solid.
sorcerer would be most likely be illegal for her because its a neck crank
sorcerer is a neck crank? wow i didn't know that...ok thanks for the heads up. And yes we been working on the electric chair sweep, not the tap out and she's getting really good at it. I will try to upload all the techniques we mentioned on one vid to show yall she's been using them in live sparring.
yep its a double armbar and reverse half nelson
This is correct thinking, no time for new, just drill the crap outta the stuff she knows. Posture, posture breaks, getting lockdown with double unders fight. Zombie drills to get the hand on the mat. A little extra cardio work. Set up drill for defense. have her start with someone on her back with double hooks and have her defend and escape. Defend half locked triangles, mount escapes to lockdown. Basics that will pay off if she happens to get caught. Also some extra stand up work with a solid standing game plan.Quote:

wow greg, you been peeking in my window? cus everything you said, we been doing that for weeks now. So i guess i'm doing the right thing huh?
" Blah BLah Blah " lol that reminds me of my super competitive Nigerian dad getting amped over my soccer games cussing refs out and getting thrown out. one day I had to run to the sideline in a state quarter final and say yo dad shut the fuck up. lol Nigerians are fuckin crazy when it comes to futbol. Funny to see jiujitsu parents buggin out too lolQuote:

I say focus on the electric chair, half and half sweep and the invisible croc :-)
Thank you Master Eddie, we been hitting the electric chair sweep and old school like nobody's business. And she's able to the invisible collar at will now. THe more and more Cora pull guard, I am start noticing kids trying to pull guard on her before she can pull guard on them....:)
Greg: I swear just the beginning of the week, that kid had about 6-7 tournament videos out. I've been watching them and I guess they can see that I'm watching them so they took the vids out. I'm wondering if I should do the same. Just hide all of Cora's vid for now. Also I'm so itching to upload a vid of what Cora's been up to for you guys to see, but I'm afraid that I might be revealing too much to the public and that they will see it and will use that info against her or develop a counter to what she is training on, like the electric chair sweep and her lockdown.
Apology Master Eddie, I just looked up the invisible croc, I had thought you were talking about the invisible collar. I thought you had a typo. But I went to the MTS and see that there is an invisible croc, and as I was watching the video, I realized that Cora has been getting her armbar from the invisible croc, even though we didn't know what it was. She use that invisible croc to win a matche at the last tournament, not sure if you seen the video yet. Here it is.

OMG...that half and half sweep is super nice....:):) That is why you are the master and I'm.....well nobody. We will get to work on them this weekend. THank you again Master Eddie
With little time left to practice I would suggest working on what she already knows. Electric Chair is pretty high percentage from half guard, so put some time and reps into that position and technique. Also make sure to pay attention to the details, practice using the proper technique. "I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times" - Bruce Lee
THanks guys for all your advice. Yeah we will be focusing on what she already know and polishing it up. Today her gym is having a seminar and we will be there so she can get a chance to roll against new kids that are not from her gym. Just using this opportunity to work on her moves as these kids don't know what she is capable of. The kids in her gym already know what she can do. I just want see her go against kids that doesn't know her and see if she can pull off all those moves we been working on.
i agree with greg, and some of the others. just work on what she knows already. and maybe in the last week get her killer instinct going so to speak. just ask her to get the submission as quickly as possible. but sounds like shes doing well.
best of luck. can we say break a leg in jiu jitsu?
