Getting Organized! March 17 Matwork Clinic

Hey, it's me, AnnMaria and I have taken over the blog for the day.

After all of the fun we had at the clinic with Ronda this Saturday, I was thinking of how to make the West Coast Judo Training Center more fun and awesome.

My first idea was to get a bit more organized. Often, the instructors know who is going to be where when but no one else does. So, here is our no longer secret plan for next Sunday.

Matwork Clinic on Sunday, March 17th

LOCATION: 
Ogden Judo School
17034 Bellflower Blvd
Bellflower, California


ALL AGES ARE WELCOME (That's why we have several instructors, to accommodate different ages)

2-3:30 pm Matwork with yours truly. We'll cover arm bar drills from standing, from kesa gatame and the Ronda arm bar because, why not. We will also do some matwork games because I am immature.

3:30 -4:30 No-gi grappling with Gary and Crystal Butts with some randori thrown in

4:30 - 6  Matwork instruction with Blinky Elizalde, with some more randori thrown in.

Cost, as always - $10

After practice we will adjourn to a local restaurant where we can watch the UFC fights. There will be drinking. We will also put together a calendar for the next three months. Our plan is to have a monthly or bi-monthly clinic. Of which this is the first. Other weekends we will have available semi-private and private lessons. These should be arranged with the instructors. Anyone is welcome to come along to the planning meeting with us afterwards and give your input. You have to buy your own drinks.

This is me (the old one)

17034 Bellflower Blvd, Bellflower California
If you go to their club website it still has the old address up, which is very confusing since they are on the same street in the same town, just about a half-mile away from the old school.
Also if you want to donate (nice) clothes for the MMA Clothes for the Homeless, bring them either on October 7 or before 4 pm on October 13, because AnnMaria will be leaving at 4 and delivering all of the donations.
