Sunday 6/20/2010

Judo  - 6-7 people in. Actually had a very hard sweat going as we worked pretty hard. We di mainly throwing except for Lawrence and his uke as his knee was hurt during his BJJ training. I worked in with Lex and threw 2 sets of 10 Harais. He threw 10 Seoi Nages and 10 Uchi mata. The Seois are very crisp and high impact but very clean so are easy to take the. The Uchi Matas were also fine, as there was np appearance of the black bean. I related the legend of the Black Bean to Lex and Sarah this past Thursday, When Sarah was the unwilling recipient of a black bean Uchi Mata. Haven't told the story in awhile... it's a real part of the lingo of the club. Cecelia was there and is working on some pretty difficult techniques. She does them OK, but, it might be good for her to do a little more of the fundamentals also. She has been a great addition, though. Very good to see a women come in who is making a lot of classes, is tough and wants to play hard. She will be a good bridge from the bigger and more experienced women to the recent additions to our womens program.

For Ne waza we talked about the knee drill, taking the head out from turtling and then coming up behind the person attacking the turtle. once we did that, we worked on taking the back with both hooks and flattening the uke out then applying the Hadaka Jime. This a bit of a grinding technique i rarely teach, but, I like to give the people who come to small classes some things we don't do all of the time. There was more trouble than I expected properly applying the Hadaka Jime without pressuring the windpipe and keeping it to a clean blood strangle. We might have to do some more of the basics to hit clean chokes.
