Hope all is well. A while back, my son Will told me you were training in Arcadia. I retired 2 years ago and started a Veterans Jiujitsu outreach program teaching vets BJJ for free. It's all voluntary and we meet 2x a week in Sierra Madre and Pasadena. You are always welcome to join us and pass on some knowledge. Merry Christmas. Good to see you here.

SIERRA MADRE Unpublished copy write work 1991 Stephen Farrell 108 bpm C E7 Am Am/G When life’s demands and obligations are abounding VERSE 1 Dm7 G7 Cma7 Dm7 G7 And the price you have to pay exceeds returns C E7 Am Am/G When your surroundings do not fit your disposition Dm7 G7 C F C You need a town you can rely on this I’ve learned F G Em Am Come to Sierra Madre… Pueblo paqueno de descanso CHORUS Dm7 G Cma7 C7 You can have the mountains…. In your own back yard F Em Am Here in Sierra Madre…. Conocemos un secreto Dm7 G7 C F C It’s not a good idea to sleep in late but don’t work… don’t work too hard Well the city of the angels is nearby VERSE 2 And you can go there…. then easily leave it behind. And if you’re fortunate you can work right in your home But first take a walk in the canyon, and say a prayer for those you call your own REPEAT CHORUS THEN LEADS ON BOTH VERSE and CHORUS music There’s a saying here that if you’ve lived here then moved away VERSE 3 That the time will come that you’ll return to stay Everybody I believe needs a home town to call their own Ah Sierra Madre … un lugar especial en mi corazon. CHORUS Dm7 G C F C Finale: We must remember not to make, not to make the simple life too hard!

@@LambdinFamily Thank you so much! Was this song ever produced? I'd love to get a recording. It's quite lovely. Does "unpublished" mean it's not available as a recording?

@@lauriedevaultart Steve now lives over on Kauai. Here is a video of a jam session on the South Shore, Koloa. Steve is on the left singing. ....ua-cam.com/video/3CaLzhmUjJ0/v-deo.html

@@LambdinFamily Thanks, Glenn. that was fun. But Maggie's singing and violin makes the song extra special. I hope you 2 make it more "public,"... perform it at local events, if you don't already.

Thank you. BJJ is an amazing art and such an enhancement to our lives.

I remember you stating never to grip your own leg on the outside, only the inside, but I never understood why

@@nonyabizness2550 It is easier to show than explain, but in short, it changes the nature of the leverage. First, your arm is further away and therefore weaker (making head control slightly weaker and allows more defense). But really the big issue is that it limits the options that are quickly available. Bringing the arm to the inside allows much quicker access tot he Upa, Guillotine and the 100%. Second and more importantly, you can hip away from that side and not lose the grip, this makes access to the shoulder pin pioneered by Dean Lister (also known as Williams Guard") very easy. Also, you can enter into the grip it more easily from the upa or switch. The outside grip was the grip often used by the Gracie family (including Royce in VT competition). But you can see that they can't do much from there but 'hunker down' when you put it on the inside it transforms the position into a strong attacking guard. This was one of my contributions to the system.

@@radicalmma I love it! I am surprised its not used more often in mma. Everything is easisr said than done when you're getting punched. Ever develop a strategy to move to a technical stand up from there?

Actually I was just teaching it. MMA guards must have three components, the ability to generate opportunities for submissions, sweeps and, most importantly, the ability to stand up and disengage. So all three are emphasized in my Rat Guard system for MMA.

I've been posting them here on BJJ for over 60 years old.....studio.ua-cam.com/channels/IvpN0P2e8q1YIC23aa-2gw.htmlvideos/upload?filter=%5B%5D&sort=%7B%22columnType%22%3A%22date%22%2C%22sortOrder%22%3A%22DESCENDING%22%7D I'll be recording and posting again soon.

Don't worry - us 35-40 year olds feel the same when we go five rounds against 18-25 year olds.

Thanks. We've started a channel with several moves. check it out and subscribe if you are so inclined.....ua-cam.com/video/wfHXOzPmV3Y/v-deo.html

@@LambdinFamily I just subscribed :)

Its just another option. One could also go for Kimora, 100% sweep, guillotine, or many other techniques.

It's not reaping if it's not all the way across your opposite hip..great move for self defense for sure.

Thank you. I'll try and film more videos tailored for us older guys and gals. I just starting to get the hang of filming and posting. Next will be to learn how to edit.....stay tuned
