SATURDAY, 5 DECEMBER 2013
Saturday's practice started the fourth year of our judo club. First Coast Kodokan Judo had its first official practice on 2 January 2010, and after the third anniversary of our club, I am proud to say that we still have a core group of dedicated (crazy?) people in attendance.
For BJJ, it was just me and Jason. We randoried a good bit of time (perhaps an hour), with me correcting some issues that I capitalized on during our roll.
In judo, Greg and David Berlin joined in. Greg introduced a new drill that, essentially, is a tug of war using a 10-foot long gi sleeve. It teaches sensitivity and correct pulling in order to off-balance your opponent (the very definition of kuzushi). It was very good.
In addition, I taught a half-guard pass into kesa-gatame from o-uchi-gari that failed to achieve ippon. We also spent about 35 minutes throwing each other into the crash pad.
All in all, the practice was good.
