So Monday was an interesting warm up. I had a new whitebelt basically freak out during an up down out exercise. Knowing as I did that the guy was new I was planning on giving only minimal resistance for the exercise, but then he surprised me- followed zero instruction and started flopping around wildly, so instead of letting him escape as I had intended I put him in mount- thus ending the exercise- but he wasn't done apparently and when I went to dismount he grabbed my headgear and tried to guillotine me. I was surprised by how calm I felt when I asked him what he believed was the point of the exercise... I'm still not sure what he thought it was, but he apologized.
The rest of class was alright. I was feeling a bit slow, but things picked up and I had a few good rolls. I'm still working on that recovery from arm bar- something in the leverage just isn't right, also I end up in a north-south orientation so I need some options from there.
