Marcelo Garcia Private Lesson
Hey guys, I have a one hour private lesson lined up with Marcelo Garcia tomorrow night. I was wondering what I should ask him to show me. I've already attended his seminar, which focused a lot on the x-guard, so I don't want to ask too many questions about the x-guard. I'm already planning on asking him for his take on finishing guys once you have their back.

I was just wondering if you guys had any other good suggestions as to stuff I should ask him to show me. Thanks.

i'm sure he could show you a thing or 2 about arm drags.
i'd be up for rolling with him and having him decide where he could help me, if i were you.

have fun and let us know how it goes.

I'm with DirectDrive on this one. Ask him to roll with you the whole lesson and instruct you along the way on how you can do things better, how to defend the sub better, etc.

I would say, please roll with me for 5 minutes and let me try some stuff. Then you can evaluate where my weakest points are, or specific problems with a position.

We had Marcelo teach at our school for an entire week a couple of months ago and let me tell you your in for a great time he's amazing and totally cool. the arm drag and butterfly guard series that he taught are pure gold. even after just one hour your game will be greatly improved. I don't agree with the idea of just rolling with him and working on what he points out there. decide on or let him decide on a series and pay attention to all the details.

anyway just my two cents.

How to get the back and finish from there, how to defend your open guard in no gi, arm drags and butterfly. IMO.
