Graduation 27/04/2019

What a fantastic day for a graduation.  Thanks to all who attended and special thanks to Jamie, Oliver's dad, for being our photographer.  A thank you to Stuart and Serge for coming out and supporting our school.  None of this would be possible without them and the families that trust us with teaching their children.

This term was action packed with everyone getting a lot more technical with their Jiu Jitsu. We had 6 students compete in the no gi tournament.  5 came away with a medal.

Last class before graduation

We had a great 2 fantastic classes today. The cooler weather was a welcome change.  We had 2 new students come out for a trial.  They did a great job in their first class  We all hope that they enjoyed our school. 

Today we worked on passing the guard.  We did knee on belly drills to warm up and put a chain together to finish with a collar choke.  It's great to see my team become more technical and able to work well without constant supervision. 

I'm very excited about our graduation this Saturday.  I look forward to seeing you all on the mats.

Competition results

Good day everyone

We had a great showing at the comp on Saturday.  Overall there were 6 competitors and 5 of those competitors won a medal.  There were 3 silver and 2 bronze medals overall.  Great work everyone.  I'm very proud of the team and how the handled themselves on the mats.

Now it's back to the dojo to carry on learning.

The competition is getting near

We had our last competition training Saturday.  Everyone worked really hard and were looking very confident.  Our competition students got the new school rash guard for the event.

In our regular classes we've been working on sweeps and passing the guard.  Everyone's technique is getting better with every class. 

We will not have class on Saturday April 6th.  We are off to the competition.  Everyone is welcome to come out and support the team. the matches should be starting between 9 and 10am

 

 

Tuesday's new class and times are a success

Today was our first juniors class which starts at 4:00pm.  Our turn out was fantastic and everyone was super focused.  I'm pleased that the changes in time and adding another class has worked. 

Our senior class at 5:00pm went very well.  Everyone worked hard on the spider guard and spider sweep. We went over the pendulum sweep as well.   

Here's a great photo of our 2 Senior students. We love our dojo!
