Last night's class

Last night was the end of the training camp for the South East No Gi Open on Sunday; it's been a fantastic camp with lots of hard work from everyone over the last seven weeks and thankfully no injuries to any of the guys competing, a sure sign of good fortune from the grappling Gods...

I've really enjoyed teaching and joining in the classes, we've had a lot of fun along the way and I am really excited about the competition and watching my guys in action; five guys have stepped up which is an improvement on numbers from the last competition and we have seven students competing at the LFF Interclub in May.

Slowly but surely the numbers are increasing for each event the club enters, which can only be good thing for all concerned; competing is a great way to test you and your skills under pressure and gives instant feedback on what needs to be worked on in the future and also gives me feedback on each student's performance.

All the hard work has been done and the hours on the mats are in the bag; all that's left is for the lads to chill out, drink plenty water, do lots of stretching and just go out there on Sunday and have fun :)

Huge thanks to our female student Veronika for the Yoga session at the end of the class, it was really beneficial for everyone...
