I thought it would be a good opportunity to run through scarf hold escapes in the women's class tonight. Good decision, as I'd forgotten I was covering the Friday class, for which this ended up being a useful practice. The bridging escape remains tough, so it's not one I ever use, but I will keep showing it as it's useful. For me, the shrimp and knee in is much higher percentage, particularly coupled with a solid frame.

In terms of notes, bridge into them, then walk behind and under, attempting to bridge back in the same motion. That's very tricky. The other escapes are much easier, you can go straight into attacks from there too.
