Went to first BJJ class last night...was fuking blast

The instructor went over:

1. elbow escape from mount
2. some other mount move (while hold the arm and bridging focring opponent to roll over and underneath you)
3. then getting your hands underneath someone while they have side control and then [shrimping?] out

just ordered my gi for next week

They don't let newbs roll with anyone until they have been to at least 3 classes.

I did have a blue belt and black belt go over moves with me directly though

Position before submission
Survival. When the jungle tears itself down and builds itself into something new. Guys like you and me, we end up dead. Doesn’t really mean anything. Or, if we happen to live through it, well that doesn’t mean anything either.

Just a few words of advice:

Just flow with the go
Leave your ego at the door
Don’t spaz
Tap and tap often
Take your time; bjj is a marathon, so take your time and perfect your technique.
It’s only the they if you look at each other in the eyes
Close your mouth when doing north/south

You haven't reached peak BJJ until you've had the entire school sweaty azz fukn crotch rubbing all over your face in a North/South position.

not spazzing is the number one thing any n00b can do.

Glad you had a good time, OP

Once you get accustomed to gi classes be sure to try no gi

Man this took me a while to regulate. Once I started to understand it, the training got much more enjoyable (for all im sure)

I also believe where you train at makes a big difference. I still get anxiety walking into comp classes......its killers row in there and even their 65% is tough.
