BackBlast Its a Wrap! JudeeChop – The Return

Its a Wrap! JudeeChop – The Return

Conditions: High 70s with low humidity and the ground was dry (enough). The #JudeeChop (JC) crew had been trying to wrap up the season earlier on a high note before the ground became too cold & hard to play on (lesson learned from last year – lol).  However, hurricane Florence overruled us as well as …

Conditions: 80s with low humidity and the ground was dry. My apt pupil aka ninja in training and now FIA’s A list photographer (more on that later) Podcast indicated that he’d like to work on submissions (i.e. chokes, locks, and cranks) for today’s session of #JudeeChop.  We had drilled some positioning (i.e. high percentage holds …

JudeeChop – The Return #8

Conditions: 80s with a little humidity. Last week YHC taught an empty hand gun self defense segment to Podcast who picked up both the techniques and the concepts.  We then ended with high percentage Hapkido locks that QIC indicated that we would go back over this Saturday.  Scheduling conflicts on YHC’s side prevented us from …

BackBlast JC #5 Co-Q Special

JC #5 Co-Q Special

Conditions: 80s with the ground wet from recent rain. YHC figured that the number of PAX for today’s beatdown at #BombSquad would be light given that there were no takers to Q nor the usual chatter on Slack & Twitter.  QIC’s ninja-in-training Podcast was DR and the ground too soggy for Judo.  So, YHC prepared …

BackBlast JudeeChop – The Return #5

JudeeChop – The Return #5

Conditions: 80s with a little humidity. YHC had promised to the PAX that this Saturday’s session of #JudeeChop/JC would actually consist of working on some Judo whereas we had done pretty much everything else (i.e. boxing, Arnis, Hapkido, and edged weapon defense) at previous #JC sessions instead of this combative.  So, Judo this morning specfically …
