Today Movimento Lento accompanied by Andre "Young Roger Gracie" Paxman and Movimento Lento Co-Reporter himself Jody "The Axeman" Paxman; headed over to GB Midlands for a special fundraising seminar.
The fund raising event was in aid of Victor and Braulio Estima's father who's life had been left devastated by the recent floods in Northern Brazil (For more information and to see the full scale of the disaster click here).
After a quick journey down the M1 thanks to some Niki Lauder style driving skills we arrived at the academy on time. Walking into the academy we were greeted by a huge gathering of people from all over the country, including our fellow GB Halifax and Leeds team mates, who had come to show their support for this worthy course. Today's seminar focus was on the open guard and controlling the opponent in open guard. Personally I learnt some really great control details that I will be trying to implement into my game.
Overall a good day for a worthy course. It is always good to meet and share ideas and techniques with fellow practitioners of the Arte Suave. Big shout out to all the people who made it. Above is a picture from the event, click through for a larger image.
Excellent article keep up the good work
ReplyDeleteLooks like a good turnout! Hope there dads alright!
ReplyDeleteThankyou for the kind words guys. I must admit that the articles are getting briefer but this is because I have been very busy with job applications and training amongst other things. I have a few ideas for some fun articles in the next few weeks.
ReplyDeleteI will continue to post as much as I can the articles will be short and sweet. Hope they don't sound too rushed.
Also, Mr T when are we going to see an update on your Blog? ;-)
Looks like you had a good time, hope they recover from this.
