Hello all, We’re going to trial a different attendance log system for this week, since the sign up sheets can be a little tedious for everyone. We’ll send round a link to an open spreadsheet. The attached image will hopefully be self explanatory. If you suddenly can’t come then just take off your name yourself. The monday and wednesday rooms still have optimal maximum capacities of roughly 12 and 16 respectively. It is still important to log your attendance if you’re coming. If you’re bringing a friend, please put their name down too. We need to have a record of who comes to each session for covid and fee reasons. We’ll send round the spreadsheet link at 20:00 today. Also, for beginners, the half hour before a session starts when the room’s being prepared and the mats are just being set out is a chance for you to maybe ask specific questions about what you need to know for your next grading, something we don’t really focus on during the sessions. For example, last Wednesday we drilled breakfalls. A good demonstration of what you need for your red belt can be found here: https://youtu.be/6P3HgkL1ShU (One technical point: two of the techniques, osoto-otoshi and uki-goshi, are superficially similar to a couple of more commonly used techniques, osoto-gari and o-goshi respectively. However they involve slightly different mechanics. Something we can talk about before sessions or during sessions) Regards, Nicolas [cid:EFC67608-3B29-40BE-A836-8EB644DBC828-L0-001]
