so it goes

A few months have passed since I got the purple belt. Recently I think just i afford to enjoy Jiu-jitsu. How long did it take to feel like this ? Including my Judo experience, it takes 14 years. I recon still my level is very low. When can i reach out for the very very purple belt ?

Someone says "go for on top", but still i am a sticker for a guard player. Sweep is my goal. No matter how big a opponent is or small i am. Thanks my senseis. I manage to be fun with bjj.

how could you get to know ?

In my case,I did switch numbers without thinking doubtly and was a cheeky boy could always get A-B grade. But now on the contrary I became so particular about little things. I don't know why i could be like that.

A reason comes later anyway, however i always try to know NOW. It's my bad habit. Even psychology, philosophy and mathematics as well, there is "a only way of thinking" that conforms to each field. That's why we can watch things from various angles and with various ways. That is interesting.
People can grasp meanings only through his mind. If our mind has a lot of drawers, we may be able to put a lot of things. I think.

training of comfort

I don't remember how many rounds we rolled. It should be more than 7-8 rounds with a very short break.




The dinner on that day was Mangetsu - Full moon. I admit it is one of the best japanese restaurants in Thailand.

Tne next day, we started beers with a breakfirst at the Cape Racha. There were 10 bottles or more as I remember.



And we had the lunch with a bottle of whiskey soon at our favorite place, Taiwan restaurant. Ryuma-chan drunk almost a full bottle by himself. We played a roll of Oath of the Peach Garden conducted by Ryuma-chan. He almost could become a philosopher. And in the end, he left for EMAC BKK for evening training.





Lastly, we had the dinner with teammates after training at Sakura, Thaniya. We opened two bottles of Syochu... Good days.

Did you make a good start ?

I went back to home during the new year holiday and trained at my old gym, Suita Jiu-Jitsu where I first started BJJ.

VS 13 persons

Sorry for delay up-date. Our good friend Taichi-san will leave for Japan. He performed the Motodachi with 13 guys at SSJJ on 14th.

What we learned from this farewel trainig is "Don't irritate Japanese old man and make him get angry at Karaoke."
Store manager - Takei is very good at doing this.
And Taichi-san's counter-wise remark, "I've been staying here for 10 years !"

Good luck Taichi san !

Ye-Mon came from Shanghai

Our friend Koba-Ken came from Shanghai Five Star JJ.
The second Karaoke, HANA, treats him severely.

our place !

good enough to roll
