So I was invited down to a local Judo club, and boy what a experience.

I was talking with the head instructor beforehand, and he invited me down to join a class. It was him and one other Judo Shodan, He told the class before hand that I held a Shodan in Goju ryu Karate, So the student running it could skip some basics, and not have to explain some stuff.

So, we started class with some stretches and calisthenics. Then we jumped right into break falls and rolls. a lot more then I'm used too. Class was then broken up and I watched the senior students with the instructor pointing out whats going on, and then giving me a try at it. Then the instructor and I talked some theory, and had some 1 on 1 time with him showing me some other throws and locks.

then I got to roll with a senior student, and that went well...

All in all a very fun time, Think I might stick with it for awhile.

Definately stick with it! Going from Judo to Karate myself, I can say its a WORLD of different, as you now know. Be sure to update us on how you're doing!

Awesome to hear that you're experimenting with different grappling stuff!

Sounds like you had a great time

I wholeheartedly concur with Judodad_karateson; stick with it!!
