Judo adventures class 2.23

[yuuago]

Attending: Me, M, M2, A, L, SJ, H, Kz, V-chan, various other teenagers. Sensei and V-sensei instructing.

I wasn't even going to go today, because the uchikomi class is intended more for competitors. But there were several non-competitors attending, so I'm glad I went.

V-chan was upgraded over the weekend! She went from yellow to half green. I'm happy for her. :)

Mix of various things today. Some groundwork, some upright. Worked on a transition from upright to groundwork; getting your partner on the ground and then getting them into a pin. (Too tired to remember procedure right now).

After that, a bit of uchikomi. I partnered with SJ, which was all right.

Did a few rounds of randori with SJ, then KZ, then H. Man, H is strong - she kicks my ass every damn time.

Sensei said that next class, we might have a visitor. A former national champion! Might be a chance to see some Very Good Judo if things work out.

Upgrading is going to be next week.
