Judo adventures 4.13

[yuuago]

Attending: Me, M1, TJ, C, Ed, Eth, Si. TN-sensei and J-sensei instructing.

We started out with groundwork. We worked on various techniques for getting out from half guard. Mostly it amounted to dropping your hip so you could shrimp out.

We also worked on a choke; IIRC he called it "Sode-guruma". Essentially you insert your right hand into your left sleeve under the opponent's head, and then your left hand slides down your right arm over the opponent's neck. It's quite a nasty choke!

I partnered with Eth for these. He's a good kid.

After that we did some freeform grip practice etc.

Good class. Looking forward to the next one. I won't be able to go on Monday because it's my brother's birthday, unfortunately.
