This one is very similar to the basic head post, but works great when avoiding a sweep, especially from a situation when you're in your opponent's butterfly guard. It is also an excellent drill for balance and coordination. If you were to apply this drill to actual rolling, imagine you're in your opponent's butterfly guard, when you base your head to the mat you would be basing off to the side of his torso and bringing your body around to his side. The same goes for the previous drill.
