Our one year anniversary of the Nogi Sunday classes. 🥳

Thank you everyone who came down, it was lovely seeing old familiar faces as well as new faces. People from Kaizen, people from Scramble, people back from Australia, judokas, children, mma fighters and bjj people!

Thank you for making our community so great, everyone looked super sharp and made massive gains with the game-based learning and rounds we did, this is only the beginning and we can’t wait to keep growing and keep getting better way faster than ever before with the amazing level of our dojo!

Come join us for an awesome session at our dojo in Horsforth to celebrate it being 1 year since our Nogi classes started.

Bring your Nogi gear, judo gi or your wrestling shoes and singlet, we will mostly be playing games but in classic Oscar-led fashion you can take charge of your own training and do whatever you want to get the most out of your training time - so long as it doesn’t bother anyone else’s training! 🤷‍♂️

We have quite a few drop-ins from various places and all our awesome members as usual. A great day to be sure and we will bring a few cans of free soda and stuff to celebrate with afterwards and hang out.

Message us if you’re dropping in! 😁🥤

We don’t see AI getting suplexed or collar strangled anytime soon in judo! 🤷‍♂️

You have to be built different to even be half as good as and a bit crazy! 🥋❤️

We have a class every day of the week, just check our timetable out online. If you want rapid progression in Judo, Nogi and to learn things the right way just head on down to one of our classes! 😁👊

If you want to practice your judo and nogi then come on down to Horsforth this Wednesday from 6:30-8:00 (this isn’t replacing other Wednesday class in Selby that day either). We have some awesome guys from other Jiu Jitsu gyms coming down as well as some really good judokas, so don’t miss out on the fun! 👊

If you need more details then just dm us for location and if you’re wanting to turn up etc.

The Nogi crew on Sunday continuing their bolo, crab ride and leglock combinations. They played many of the cla games taught by in terms of controlling legs before looking at some of the concepts surrounding generating back exposure and being “sticky” when we have a good position as not to lose it.

We had some good rounds afterwards in the heat as well ☀️.

If you want a good example on how to generate massive skill development look at Oscar and Moses’ round in the last clip:

Both are mindful of the weight and skill gap (which is also why in our Nogi classes we have had no major injuries yet 🤞) but they always come to training with a goal on what they’re working on.

They stick to those areas of focus when they grapple to improve at incredibly fast rates, even if they have less weekly mat time than some other people due to work or other commitments, their results, skills and discipline speak loudly. They also care about their training partners and, as a result, elevate the room massively. 🥋😎

If you want to improve too using the methods done by the best in the world then come on down and find an awesome community waiting for you. 👊🔥
