This week our primary focus will be headlock escapes – both from the standing position and the ground!  This is a common situation that is a crucial piece of self defense knowledge, so there will be lots of details covering all the applications and variations. From there, bring a pen and paper because we’re covering a new Lesson Plan in our Fundamentals classes this week as well!

Our team had another outstanding showing at the IBJJF Dallas Open, and we couldn’t be more proud of Cornell and Jake for representing CTA Irving with incredible skill and composure.

Cornell put together two exceptional matches on his way to capturing Gold! His strategy, patience, and technical execution were on full display as he relied on fundamental techniques taught every day at our academy. From Sasae Tsurikomi Ashi and De La Riva X Guard to a crushing Smash Pass and a precise Sleeve Drag, Cornell demonstrated that solid fundamentals truly win matches. Even more impressive, he did not allow a single point to his opponents throughout the tournament.

Jake also delivered an outstanding performance, earning a silver medal after two exciting matches. He showcased a textbook Over/Under Pass and finished one of the most exciting moments of the day with a perfectly timed Homer Simpson Sweep right at the buzzer. His determination and technical growth continue to impress both on and off the competition mats.

Congratulations to both Cornell and Jake on their performances. We are proud to have you representing CTA Irving and look forward to seeing what’s next as our team continues to grow and improve together.

Our focus this week will be escaping and recovering! Both the Side Control and Knee on Belly positions can be difficult to endure and even harder to get out of, but we’ll cover all of those details and more. Whether we’re recovering Guard, wrestling up, or even going after a sneaky Submission, this week’s material is guaranteed to be a game changer as we head back to the Dallas Open on Saturday!

  • CLASSES CANCELLED – 2026 IBJJF Dallas Summer Open (Market Hall – Dallas, TX)

Competition days are about more than medals—they’re about the dedication, growth, and commitment that happen long before stepping onto the mats.

CTA Irving came together as One Team and One Family at the Jiu-Jitsu World League tournament recently, celebrating both the hard work behind the scenes and the performances when it was time to compete.

For Selene, the day was a reminder that the process matters. Although she didn’t have a match this tournament, she put in countless hours of preparation over the previous weeks to be ready. Showing up, putting in the work, and supporting the team are all part of what makes a competitor—and a teammate—successful.

Our adult competitors also had an incredible day on the mats. Arif displayed outstanding technique, composure, and strategy throughout his matches, earning a well-deserved Silver medal. Rodrigo continued to showcase his skill and determination, finishing with two submission victories to claim Gold.

It was an honor to be in their corners and witness the growth, effort, and confidence they brought to competition.

At CTA Irving, we believe that every tournament is an opportunity to learn, improve, and represent our academy with pride. Whether it’s a first competition, a hard-fought match, or a championship performance, we show up together—and when it’s time to shine, we do it brightly.
