We are currently expanding our Gracie Jiu-Jitsu program here at the school in Woodstock Georgia. One of the classes we are adding to our program is a Gracie Jiu-Jitsu takedown and throwing class. This class will focus on the pummeling range. When you see two people standing and they clinch each other trying to control each other our twist each other to the ground this is the pummeling range. This is a common position to end up in even for people who are untrained in fighting methods. You can watch any video on YouTube and it is not uncommon to see the fights start out with strikes and then end up in a standing wrestling match. Since this is a common range in combat it is important to take time and study this area intelligently so that you are prepared if you end up in the situation in a fight.
Personally I look at to possible themes that can happen in this range, one is called Randori. Randori is a training method from judo. In the second I generally refer to as pummeling, I was first introduced the pummeling in a system called combat submission wrestling from my teacher Eric Paulson. Because of my background in judo, Jiu-Jitsu, and combat submission wrestling this class will cover both of these concepts. Our goal with this class is to teach the student the ability to control someone in this range and if they choose to take them to the ground and continue with their Jiu-Jitsu game. Another benefit from this past ability to stop someone who is trying to take you to the ground. It is a common statement around the school that if you want to learn to stop something you would should first learn how to do it well. So if you are not training some sort of pummeling or standing grappling in your game now you should be. The lack of this training will leave a large hole in your overall self-defense or fighting game.
