When I arrived at the hall for Jiu-Jitsu, things seemed pretty dead. Once inside, I was relieved. The instructor was already there, and one other White Belt student. I've been to Saturday morning classes with less.
I got changed, and we set up the mats. Two more White Belts turned up. We now had more students than I've ever seen on a Saturday.
We rolled through all the drills and had an excellent class. Afterwards, the instructor asked me to help him get ready for a Hapkido exam. He wanted to practise his test techniques, and needed somebody who could throw kicks at him.
Then it was off to buy printer ink, smoked almonds, and to drive home.
Best Saturday Reflex Development class ever.
I am a 68 year old retired teacher living on the west coast of Canada. I spent over 30 years as a student of Karate until my knees stopped liking it. My current passionate activity is Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, which I've been at for about 13 years.
