In my opinion, if you know these two escapes and learn to use them in combination, you should never get stuck under Kesa-gatame. Hon-kesa-gatame is a powerful pin if used correctly. It is common to see it in Judo, Jiu-jitsu, Sambo, Wrestling, and MMA.
It is very hard to find the level of expertise in a coach like Larry Keith. With 36 years of martial arts training and experience and well over 20 years of teaching, you are in great hands! He and his many excellent coaches have set up a curriculum that can help any martial artist in any facet of the game. This is a school of true martial artists. I couldn't recommend them more!
Really enjoying the virtual sessions during this strange time. Definitely helps with stress relief AND lets me use my gym mats in the garage. I plan on upgrading my gym some more! To my wife's regret, I'm sure!
