Training Notes: March 4, 2012

I went up to baltimore and trained with Joe and his group. I also wanted to see what he's been teaching his group too. I arrived late and started walking to the backyard. I was instantly greeted by 4 charging dogs (nice big dogs) coming straight for me. Luckily, nothing bad happened so I continued on to be greeted by Joe, Chris, and Ann.

Joe was teaching 5 count passing drill with grappling isolations. It was good to get some reps in with everyone. We ended class with Receiver grips. Good times!

If you are in the Baltimore area and like to train with Joe Cypressi, he can be reached by email: jcypressi@gmail dot com.
