Intro to the double sleeve guard - Monday Class with Ari

Footage from Monday 15th June In this video, I give an introduction to the double sleeve guard, one leg as a half lasso, and the other leg shot through as a bicep ride or spider. This guard is a great introductory guard to open guard - especially if the guard player is finding him or herself constantly getting passed, and unable to initiate attacks. As well, this possibly one of my most favourite guards for transitioning to lower body guards such as the outside DLR, as well as other upper body guards. I also cover a nice little guard retention drill, specific to this guard, which a lot of you may find useful as these are likely the main ways people will try to dismantle this particular open guard. Hope you enjoy.
