Every move page on this site cites its source. The sources live here — the instructionals I'm working through, with the transcripts preserved verbatim so I can return to the original teaching whenever my notes fall short.

## Current shelf [#current-shelf]

* [**Foundation of Offense: Turtle and Front Headlock** — Gordon Ryan](/docs/body/mat/sources/foundation-of-offense). Danaher / B-Team lineage. Currently studying. Switched here from Brian Glick because Gordon goes more granular on mechanics and that's the depth I needed.
* [**High Percentage Leg Locks** — Lachlan Giles](/docs/body/mat/sources/high-percentage-leg-locks). The modern 50/50-centric leg-lock system — 50/50, 80/20, outside Sankaku. Volume 01 (Concepts) worked through.

## Past shelf [#past-shelf]

* [**Only Way Out: Front Headlock and Turtle Escapes** — Brian Glick](/docs/body/mat/sources/only-way-out). Black belt under John Danaher. Six volumes — worked through Volumes 01 and 02. The techniques work; Glick's explanations weren't detailed enough for me to embody them, so I switched to Gordon Ryan's instructional above. The volumes stay on the site as a record of what I worked through.
