Bonnie’s Pond

As I have said a friend and I have opend a yoga studio in a Ju Jitsu place in the city. So far we haven’t had a whole heap of people, but then things are just starting to get going, most of the people we have had though have been guys from the Ju Jitsu place. I figured since they were trying their hand at yoga I ort to try my hand at Ju Jitsu. I do like trying new things and I also figured this would give me some idea of how to structure my classes what parts of the body they need to streach and strengthan and so on.

I dragged lok along with me seeing as hes been saying he wants to do some form of martial art. We both loved it so much so we have decided to make it a more regular thing. Lachlan has been telling every one that I kicked his ass which is not 100% accurate I did after all have a few advantages firstly I was partenered with the teacher which ment I had better instructions than him and I don’t think hes taken into consideraion that I did, after all do Judo (which is rather similar) for a good eight years and while it has been a while I do remember a few things from the old days.

So the way we figure it we might go to a few lessons then start takeing a few people along the first week after all is free, its great fun a great way to keep fit and a good way to learn to defend oneself. The teacher was talking to us about Ju jitsu as a form of self defence and he was saying that one of the good things about Ju Jitsu is it can be used to and degree that you need so it was be used to beat the crap out ofsomeone who is attempting to beat you up or it can be used to control but not actualy injure your girlfriends drunken and out of hand brother. This made me laugh, I had to wonder how many years someone would have to have been learning Ju Jitsu before they felt confordent enough to take on my drunken and disorderly brother. If my brother starts makeing trouble usually it just clears the room.
