Summer Term

I can't believe the summer term is nearly over. We are in the process of finishing up the ground fighting and start review. Its been tough for me to focus these last few weeks with planning our trip to Peru and organizing a wedding. I owe everyone here in Dartmouth and the gang in Kingsville a hearty thank you for thier patients.

Knee

It's only been a few weeks since my knee surgery but I felt really good in class tonight. I was extremely happy with what I could do other than I'm still suffering from a cold.

The instructor group has been thinking about forward energy in techniques and keeping energy in the hands. No matter what you are doing the power and strength comes directly from the legs and the structure linking everything together, very complex.

I get frustrated when I see students muscling and blowing through techniques without considering their body condition or studying the process. I must consistently remind myself "They're just white belts...." or "yellow belts......"

Dartmouth Kyushu-Ryu Ju-Jitsu Club

I can't get over how full the club has become. Our students are extremely dedicated and work extremely hard. Everyone has a blast, I think that's half the draw.
