Had the pleasure of attending the Eddie Kone seminar in Rotherham again yesterday at the invite of Mark 'Monkey' Bottom; travelled over the M62 through the most horrendous weather with a few lads and took in an afternoon of black belt tuition.
Eddie started the seminar with a nice litle combo of taking the single leg, adding a few counters and 'what if's?' in as well, ending the first hour with us practising all the moves on our partners.
The second hour started on the ground and I was re introduced to a few long forgotten basics which will now be re introduced into my classes, nice one Eddie! Also included were a few neat little counters to arm bar defences and some nice little tips on defending the mount, sweeping your opponent off balance and gaining the upper hand.
The seminar ended with rolling and the obligatory group photo and another afternoon done and dusted!
Thanks to Eddie for coming up to teach and big shout out to the Rotherham Massive and to my main man Shukie Lok, nice to see you again!
Eddie should be back again in Rotherham in two weeks, with a few members from his affiliated club in Romania, so plenty to be getting on with in December!

What the heck is going on in Photo #2??
I got a lot of time for Ed, I look forward to seeing him compete at the Euros next year.
We were drilling kataguruma Seymour, starting from standing when they grab the left hand sleeve at the bottom. You step in and break the grip with an inside nee, then drop in undernaeth and take them down. I managed to catch the move in mid throw!
