SAMBO MORNINGS
Every Sat 9:30-10:45 we train Sambo. A great sport, martial art, and self defense system.
Glenn today spent some time discussing sambo rules (sport), how they differ from judo (martial art), partly because of the way sambo was originally designed (self-defense).
It's a new club, so we have between 6-12 athletes on the mat.

CLEAN MATS - BUT DON'T FORGET YOUR FLIP FLOPS
We steamed our mats today, as we do every other week (we also deep clean them with H202 every second week).
Be it because of judo, wrestling, bjj, sambo, or whatever else, we've been on those mats for 5 years plus, and (touch wood) NEVER had a skin infection to record on our accident book.
But, to be clear, if you don't want to get MRSA, staph, tinea pedis, ringwarm etc... you should always wear a pair of sandals/flip flops off the mats.
No excuses and don't take it personally if we tell you to.

A PLEA TO ALL GRAPPLERS - PAY YOUR DUES DURING THE COVID-19 CRISIS
To the grappling community of fellow judoka, sambists, jujiteras/jujiteros, and wrestlers: PLEASE CONSIDER CONTINUING PAYING your mat fees, membership fees, or club dues, throughout the COVID-19 outbreak.
Realistically, sooner rather than later, your club will have to suspend its activities. Your sensei or coach will have to stop coaching. Your community hall or gym will have to shut down.
Coaches are mostly self-employed: no coaching = no income. Clubs have huge overhead and fixed costs (rent, insurance, certain utilities,.

GOLD AT THE BRITISH SCHOOL CHAMPIONSHIPS
Well done to Courtney for her GOLD yesterday, is a very competitive category and bracket. 🥳🥳
This is an impressive achievement. Courtney started training at Shinbudo with Glenn soon after we opened. She's been cross training in BJJ with Emma, and also trains in other clubs (Jo's in particular). She has never shied away from a competition mat and she is an asset for our club, helping the younger lot and being a great role model. As most young and successful competitive players, her family network has been of great support. But the credit is all hers.

COVID-19 PLANS #2
First of all we hope you are all well.
Secondly, and further to our previous #1 Covid-19 message, we would like those of you who are in a high risk group or who care for somebody in a high risk group to refrain from coming to sessions until further notice.
This is an additional precaution in addition to the suggestions we made last week (only train if you are fit and well, and wash hands before coming on the mats).

COVID-19 PLANS #3
Dear Shinbudo members and friends,
Our coaches have taken the view that the time has come to SUSPEND ALL CLASSES UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.
This is partly in light of the new guidance issued by Governing Bodies and by the Government, and partly because at this stage it is the right, solidaristic, and prudent thing to do.
Keep well, stay healthy, and we trust that the lessons you've learnt on the mats will transfer well off the mats, giving you the fortitude and serenity to breeze through the next few weeks.
Please keep in touch (as we will, with members). We'd like to hear f

We steamed our mats today, as we do every other week (we also deep clean them with H202 every second week).
Be it because of judo, wrestling, bjj, sambo, or whatever else, we've been on those mats for 5 years plus, and (touch wood) NEVER had a skin infection to record on our accident book.
But, to be clear, if you don't want to get MRSA, staph, tinea pedis, ringwarm etc... you should always wear a pair of sandals/flip flops off the mats.
No excuses and don't take it personally if we tell you to.
