Sunday class. Was lightly attended. Alma was working the pool but, Joe C. came in which helped. Would have been a frustrating class but, it was almost all guests. John the big junior green belt from S. Philly came and Mike Ancona made a special guest appearance. We cover Uchi mata in pretty good depth as this was Mike's thing and could be a good fit for John. Did mostly fits and throws and then a little light randori standup went long then we covered the Ancona roll and trained a bit. Mike still feels strong but he is so far behind the technicque curve after years of not training he struggled. He still wants to play hard and his body will do it, but his techniques are rusty and he is a beat late with everything. I would think it was just me as I have improved and am bigger than him, but, John gave him fits also. John is pretty good, but back in the day Mike would have gone through him without trying.
Just goes to show you can slow down but never stop or everyone else will overtake you.
