Hi all,

Firstly, thanks to Sarah and co for running the grading at the weekend - was great fun!

I had a Judo session tonight and I noticed something in "throw for throw" style Randori. My breakfalls seem to have noticably improved since the weekend - I think the several hours of being thrown around as part of the Jujitsu grading has assisted with the ol' muscle memory to a great degree!

Probably more of a confidence/less scared of being thrown thing, but everything felt so much stronger.

So, another "plus" ....

lol. Well that's one other good thing to come from being beaten up for several hours on a Sunday. It's a tough day isn't it?

Where do you train on a Tuesday?

Are you down on Thursday? I have your licence and result from Sunday.

I was very proud of everyone on Sunday!

Yes, more hard work than I was expecting. Definite cross-training benefits though -- I think the whole "think quickly" aspect translates as well!

Tuesdays I am usually over at Yamabushi near Godalming. Only about 3-4 seniors, with the rest being transition juniors. Peter runs that one. I used to go to Camberley on Tuesdays but it's not really a teaching class....

I'll definitely be attending tommorrow!

Ahhh, Peter who we were watching at High Wycombe? I'd imagine that's a great session for technique.

I'll see you tomorrow then.
