training

had a great jits class last night... i'm starting to see how you can turn one submission into mulitple submissions..  (it's all clicking together!!)  i swear jess and i learned about 4 to 5 submissions just from going into the lapel choke.  it was also great to roll with the guys.... coach john basically said no more... switch partners.  it's never bothered me to roll with the guys, i just don't want to take away from their training.. most of them are all blue belts and have been doing this a long time.  but if you really think about it, not only am i learning so much more when partnered with someone who dominates (experience/size/strength) me but they are learning too... their forced to focus on the details of their submissions and/or escapes with someone who has a small frame.  =)
