Asuka watched Kiro try and try.  When he dropped down on the first pullup Asuka considered letting it slide.  She still needed him alive for the actual technique training.  When Bakusa told him to restart she was thankful.  Instead of her looking like the bad guy it was him.  She smiled at him briefly, sure he could sense her thanks.

Kiro finally made it through the ropes and Asuka immediately moved on.  "Ally!" she called her other disciple from her own strength training.  She raced over and stood by Asuka, ready for helping.

"In Brazilian Jiu Jitsu there are three main positions.  I'm going to teach you how to switch between them.  From these three positions stem a variety of other moves and techniques."  

Asuka then proceeded to lie on the mat while Ally positioned herself on Asuka, one knee on each side of the woman's hips.  "Learning this at first can feel awkward, but don't ever treat it that way.  This is a martial art.  The position we are in is called Top Guard.  Ally's holding the guard because she's in the dominant position.  From here I can't get up and do anything."  Asuka sat up and Ally forcefully pushed her onto her back.

"I can't go up, but she can come down," Asuka said and ripped Ally down to her chest by the Gi's collar.  "So her center of gravity is all messed up.  She doesn't have power bent down like this.  All I need to do is buck my hips and she'll fly off."  Asuka bucked her hips to the side, still gripping the collar, and rolled them both, now on top of Ally.  "It's as simple as that."

Asuka got off of Ally and sat on her knees.  Ally wrapped her legs around Asuka's waist.  "Now Ally is in Full Guard.  Now with this position I can't just switch into Full Guard like with Top Guard, but I can go into Side Guard, but I'll show you that in a second."

"It's a little more complicated getting into a guard after escaping Full Guard, but you'll catch on quick.  I can't just stand up," Asuka said and stood.  Ally was still latched onto Asuka, now hanging in the air by Asuka's waist.  "If I stand she can perform different takedowns and chokes, but that's a little complex for now.  So," she said and sat down again," I'm just going to force her legs apart."  Asuka placed her hands on Ally's stomach and her elbows on the inside of the disciple's thighs.  She pressed down, creating pressure in the stomach and legs, until the girl released her grip.

"It's as easy as that.  From here, once the guard is down, I'm going to push her knee down," Asuka did so, "step over the right leg," she stepped over her leg, "and place my chest on hers, forcing all of my weight onto her," she went chest to chest with the girl and it was clear she wasn't getting as much oxygen as before.  "You're not going to know exactly where to put the pressure to restrict her breathing some just yet, but just your weight will keep you in some kind of advantage.  From here I put my right arm under her neck and hold her there.  Now I'm in Side Guard.  Look at where my legs are," Asuka said.  Her right leg was out and she balanced on the ball of her foot and toes while her left knee was placed firmly in Ally's hip.  "This gives me a strong base and the ability to move with her.  You can also position like," she got onto both of her knees and left them about shoulder-width apart, "this.  It's stronger than the other way but has slightly less mobility.  A third way of holding yourself would be," she shot both of her legs out and was now balancing on her toes, her back straight, "this.  It has the most mobility, but is hardest to transfer into other positions, at least in my opinion.  The first way is standard, so I'll teach you like that," she explained and went into the first foot placement.  "This is Side Guard."

"From Side Guard all I have to do is hop on top of her to get Top Guard."  Asuka swung her right foot over Ally's legs and released her grip under the neck and was immediately in Top Guard.  "It's easy."

Asuka went back into Side Guard with Ally on the bottom.  "Escaping it takes a minute to learn, but once you have it it's easy.  Ally is going to spear her left arm up, since I'm on the right side, and release my grip."  Ally lifted her arm up and Asuka's went with it.  "From here she needs to shoot her hips out to that big gap she created on the left side."  Ally shoved her hips to the left, now on her side and out from under Asuka.  "She escaped and all she needs to do is wrap her legs around my waist and she's back in Full Guard."  Ally demonstrated, wrapping her legs around Asuka, and they were back at the beginning of the cycle.  

"We'll show you this two more times and from there it's your turn so pay attention."  Asuka and Ally went through all three of the motions twice, the first time slow and the second time faster, more realistically but not too fast.

"Alright, now go through it with Ally, you start on the bottom of Top Guard.  Go through every piece of the cycle and once you've some that you'll repeat the cycle, switching roles."  She wasn't going to give him any weighted gear this time as he just needed to learn.  "As you her the hang of it, Ally will start resisting and even countering.  Don't slip up or she'll get you into a choke.  For now I want you to learn.  Got it?"
