		<description><![CDATA[The &#8220;amassa pão&#8221; (or &#8220;amassa pao&#8221; or &#8220;punch choke&#8221;) is a choke executed from inside someone&#8217;s guard, usually to subdue or ward off attacks from the person holding the position.

		<description><![CDATA[I have been thinking about transitions from side control recently &#8211; especially techniques where you capture an arm or limb on the way. I think it&#8217;s a great way to get into an even better attacking position. I wish I was better at it. I like the transaction at the beginning of this video, which [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve also been recollecting on my experiences up to this point of training; I have been training for about a year and have a new belt from a recent promotion. It&#8217;s been an enjoyable, good road, and I&#8217;ve had consistent and strong attendance. [...]]]></description>

This session ended when the instructor executed a baseball/baseball bat choke from knee on belly. I failed to block grips and he snagged a deep hold on my collar &#8211; and a [...]]]></description>

At tap-out here, a tap-out here &#8211; nothing revolutionary or dominant &#8211; but I&#8217;m consistently doing the vast majority of tapping whenever I roll.

		<description><![CDATA[In class tonight we learned some side control (also called &#8220;kesa gatame&#8221;) escapes. Side control is a dominant position in grappling.
