It was a special day yesterday, but unfortunately, it's that 'time of the month for me', my uterus ninjas are killing me. Anyways, our lesson was basic Judo takedowns. If I'm not mistaken, the takedowns we learned yesterday were OSOTOGARI, and OUCHI GARI. I swear, I'm not good in memorizing the names of Judo techniques, as long as it has "RI" at the end.. that's it Jk HAHAHHA
For me, learning Judo takedowns is FUN, but you have to get the perfect timing to execute the techniques properly. I love Judo. It's also a plus if you learn how to do takedowns especially when you want to join BJJ competition.
Belated International Women's day to all women here on Hive. Here's our photo with my very strong and smart Jiujitsu girls.
Mandatory group photo with our overdue blue belt who is now purple belt, finally. He was supposed to receive his purple belt 2 years ago.. but an emergency happened with his family so he wasn't able to attend the awarding. We were so happy for him. He's one of our kuyas, and who's always leading the warm-ups. Sometimes we wish he's absent, not because we don't wanna see him, but because we don't wanna do warm-ups... SOMETIMES! 😅 But you know, warm-ups are really important. 🙂

By the way, it's our sensei's last day today here in the Philippines, but he'll be back after a month I think. He will be doing a training camp in a world-class academy in San Diego, because they will be competing in the SEA GAMES 2022. Please support Philippine team! <3
That's all for today! :) :) :)
