Class in Maharlika Martial Arts: 1/27/2015

We reviewed transitional drills throughout class. Later, Guro Joe M. showed some ways to integrate open-seam cuts during one of the drills. We had picked one transitional drill and tried to look for open seams during the drill. We then had Receivers try landing some phase-2 locks from a free-flow motion. 2 on 1 holds.
