Great Week of Judo

On Monday at the Jiu-Jitsu School in Columbia Maryland where I train we had a Judo seminar with 2012 Olympic hopeful Nick Delpopolo and Jiu-Jitsu & Judo Black Belt Dan Simmler. The seminar centered around how Judo is applied to Jiu-Jitsu. We went over some very good throws and learned a lot about gripping. Over the past few days we have spent a lot of time drilling the techniques. I cant wait to put them to use in a tournament situation.
Nick's Judo was awesome. He is the top rated judo practitioner at his weight in the U.S. and rated 15 in the world. Below is a video of Nick winning Ippon of the day at the 2012 World Cup in Portugal.
