I blog fairly consistently about my experiences, successes, and challenges as I (and my son) learn Judo.
But it’s important to point out that no one can effectively learn Judo in a Vacuum. I am not in a room alone perfecting my technique. It is only through the wonderful teaching from my Senseis, and the support of a Dojo full of people who really have become like family to me, that I am able blessed to be able to grow and learn like I have.
From the beginning this has been due to my Dojo, Hidden Valley Judo and Jiu Jitsu. Not only have I been supported, mentored, and yes… to get mushy, loved here. But the Dojo has always been great in its tolerance of my kids coming with me, sometimes to learn, and sometimes just to go into the “play room” and raise hell with the other kids while we train.
Every single class I learn so much. You can’t learn what you really need from an instruction video. It’s the patient, experienced teacher pointing out that you need to tun your foot a fraction of an inch more, pull harder with the lead hand, and shift weight more to your left foot that you really excel.
Thank you so much to Mike, Dr. Chen, and everyone for all that I have learned, and intend to learn.
Get ready, because I’m throwing you next
