Tonight was a good time to return to training. I hurt my Achilles tendon a couple of Sundays ago, and have been off since then. Wouldn't want it to turn into something serious. Tonight I was back on the mat.
It feels just fine.
Our instructor has been away for a while training in Florida at a big Gracie Camp being held there. It was his first night back, too.
He is all full of fresh enthusiasm. Tonight we didn't do a regular class, but instead did some variations and improvements he picked up on the kimura armlock.
It was a hoot, and very interesting.
When not working on all that, I got partnered with Cody and we worked on preparing for our next test sessions.
Lots of good test training, some new information, a re-enthused instructor, and my leg held up perfectly.
Can't beat that.
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.
