Tonight's BJJ Hertfordshire Class 8:15pm start

Guys,

I have been asked by the Scouts to start our class tonight (and now on on Wednesdays) at 8:15pm as they are concerned that the extra people in the Scout Hut at 8pm makes it difficult for them to ensure all the scouts leave with an adult.

BJJ Scoring

Guys, Ollie asked me to send around the BJJ scoring system , which I think is a great idea, so here it is:

4 points – mount, back grab

3 points – passing the guard

2 points – take downs, sweeps and knee on the belly

Remember though, you can be 100-0 down and submit the guy and win. Submission ALWAYS win.

For info on disqualifications, please speak to Dave "Ultimate Oaksey" Oaks

Cheers

Thank Yous & BJJ Hertfordshire Birthday Party - Response Required Please

BJJ Hertfordshire has now been open for 1 year. Here are a few thank yous

First of all I would just like to thank everyone that has ever attended a BJJ class you have made this an incredible year. 

It really means a lot to me that I have been able to share the amazing sport of Jiu Jitsu with you

For all the guys that have believed in what we have tried to build and have signed up as monthly members - a special thank you.

Throughout the year many people have given stuff & time to make BJJ Hertfordshire better - Arlans (for just being Arlans), Anthony (assistant Instructor for the kids class), Andrew Harvey (taxi driver for Anthony), Nolan (logos), Jason (Red mats - not THE Red mat, the good ones), Matt (for arranging the Defence Soap delivery),  Simon White (S&C and getting the hall in the first place), all the speakers/instructors for the seminars, all the guys from Edmonton that make the long journey to Hoddesdon to train with our team and the Scouts for letting us use the venue. Sorry to anyone I have forgot.

A special thank you to Stuart Anderson, a great friend and teammate that gives so much value to the running of the classes. Thank you.

Birthday Party details

The party will be all Saturday the 13th August from 5pm at the Scout Hut in Hoddesdon.

There will be a BBQ (anyone want to be chef let me know), drinks, UFC 133 rerun and a winner takes all 1000 pence cash sock wrestling competition that is open to all ages and gender.

Please let me know if there are any dietary things i need to account for and feel free to bring extra food and drinks.

Wives, Girlfriends, Partners & Kids are welcome, and very much like my classes, meat head idiots that are going to smash the place up are not welcome.

Please can you email me at enzovullo@me.com if you would like to attend and who you will be bringing so I have ann idea of numbers. Please can you also let me knwo if you can't make it.

Cheers and thanks again for the support for the year, I am looking forward to continuing to grow the club with you and dishing out coloured bets!

For those that went to the 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Seminar in Essex

Do you remember the purple belt with the lock down that made you want to cry? He just got his brown belt (see that last promotion on the video) . From what Eddie bravo says, he seems like a badass Jiu Jitsu player.

Also for those that didn't go, the video is also shows Eddie Bravo's approach to belt promotions. Interesting watch.

The video is marked as unlisted, so i hope you can access it here:
