Masters Athlete v. the IJF

Icon Leave Comment
I'm going to start out by warning you, you might not to read this. THis is going to be a political diatribe covering for my whining about getting excluded by the IJF. So, advance at your own peril. For pictures and whatnot from the recent World Master Athlete Judo Championships in Montreal, check back later. That will probably be my next...

shimewaza - my kid & naps...

I'm not sure if I've spent much time on this topic but for the record....

It's my favorite activity and of all the techniques we study I'm actually fairly proficient in this area. I can defend well and rarely need to tap and spend a fair amount of time getting partners to tap!....and until last night have never taken a...

Ending With a Bang

Holy Cow; I disappear for a week or two, and suddenly the JudoForum has moved the office to a Helmut Jahn designed building. With these fancy glass walls, people are going to see me falling asleep at my trendy table top styled desk.

It's been some weeks, of single parenting and taking on the responsibility of a university class, but...

My Grandson

Icon 1 Comments
Part of my legacy may be my grandson Gabrielito. He is six and some odd months, pushing seven, on the rocket pad yearning to be launched into seven and beyond. The world is still a wonderous palce in his child's eyes. He looks, laughs, and marvels at what is arround him...the possibilities of the yet to be explored. When he is with me, he...

Guilty Guilty Guilty

Sensei was not happy with what he saw during newaza randori.
He stopped everyone and said he's seeing a lot of people doing something he never taught us-- pulling your opponent squarely, directly on top of us (ie "pulling guard"). Guilty. Oops.
He advised to pull our opponent across us, "always at angle!"

Yawara Jûdô Association Student Manual Update

I have been working on updating the Yawara Jûdô Association Student Manual for about a year now, off and on. I have been working on a few things here and there but decided that I’d start doing major editing at the Dôjô section.

Tokui Waza

Icon Leave Comment
So I guess it's time to talk tokui waza. Not sure what it means to some people, not sure if it matters. Here is some observations I have made over the last two weeks with the term tokui waza. I think that tokui waza depends on the body type and style of person you are fighting. Of course if you are constantly competing against people your...

Coaching Style with sample lesson plan

Icon Leave Comment
Well I think that i might write about the different coaching style that I use. I'd be surprised if anyone in the world did a class like mine (good or bad thing I don't know!). I try and use new activities and drills to ensure that my kids aren't bored . Short activities to match their concentration span! Never more than 5...

Photographers in Edinburgh - Who Should You Choose?

Icon Leave Comment
Aside from the Edinburgh specialized photography firms that you're picking out to pursue for your upcoming certified celebration, however, an old query is what makes a very good photographer? You may find a multitude of variables that go into making an Edinburgh photographer far better compared to subsequent but what specifically is it that...

Judo returns to video games

I had the opportunity to recently try out the new UFC Undisputed Game for the PS3. One of the more interesting aspects of the game, is the human throwing machine - Karo Parysian.

The game allows the ability to clinch, and work on judo based throws or sweeps. From the double-underhook, you have the chance to perform inner leg reaps - while from...

Promotion to ikyu

Last several weeks I concentrated a lot on technique because the day of my exam was coming closer.
I practiced nage no kata a couple of times at my university club, and a couple of times with my partner at my home club.
When NNk felt fine, I revised every throw with my partner until we were tuned in on each other and then I was ready to take the...

Exercice 04: ROKU. "Horizontal stroke".

At this point you already know how to apply specific pressure to create the strokes... for this reason I think you are confident enough to try this exercice.
It is about ROKU...

Guess what, it's Wednesday!

Icon Leave Comment
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's Wednesday. Don't let the exclamation point in the title fool you into thinking that it's something special to be excited about. It's just Wednesday.

Anyways, the drill is still the same: teaching the little kids. There was only one new kid today, so sensei actually taught something besides going over the...

hip wheel, hip back

Tuesday's class started with a good warm up. We worked our 3-2-1 okuri ashi harai drills side to side and backwards and forwards at an angle. Then we added a new drill where we rotate the uke in a circle and sweep. The uke is pulled to the lapel side in a circle while keeping the sweeping footin place. When the uke ets to the opposite side the...
