When rolling, don’t forget to tap. Always err on the side of tapping out. It is not worth the injury.

Tonight I began rolling with brown belt – and about  9 seconds later – I was in a leg lock. For a split second I believed I could escape the hold – so I twisted to my left, naively thinking my leg would be freed and the situation would evolve to something different, but It didn’t. I should I have began tapping the moment my leg was captured. For my mistake I have sore left calf. I’m lucky it wasn’t worse.

It always important to tap when in peril. I’m lucky I didn’t injured. When in doubt, tap.
