To my right, UFC fighter Tim Credeur and top Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt and trainer Tim "Panda" Burill are demonstrating a particularly vicious guillotine choke/neck crank hybrid.
"This is grimy, bro," Credeur tells the students gathered around him. "Like if you were in my gym and did this, you'd be taking a day off grimy, but for you guys this is a perfect way to end the fight."
Behind me I can hear UFC fighter Jorge Rivera explaining how to turn someone when you have them locked up in a Muay Thai clinch.
"Turn their head like it was a steering wheel," Jorge says while demonstrating on his striking coach Matt Phinney. "They'll move where you want them to go. Make sure you are keeping that good space you need and then right back to that knee we talked about a minute ago."
In front of me, UFC lightweight contender Gray Maynard and the WEC's Damacio Page have their students working a takedown that looks more to me like a football tackle than your normal double leg.
"Put your head right in the center his chest and drive!" Damacio tells the students.
