Base in Guard
Do you have a base when in guard position? I can see this two ways.
1. You are on your back, a huge point of contact. You could not possibly fall from there so you have a great base. It is this base that allows you the luxury of using all fours limbs on your opponent.
2. You have no base. Your goal is to build base. Get to a side, post and elbow/hand. Win the head/hip height battle. Get on top or escape.
What do you guys think?
Since this group is dedicated to Master Rickson’s teachings, have your ever heard him address this question?
