Another great week of training! Hard training everyday this week and everyone is feeling tough! Glad to have great people to train with here in Kagoshima! Planning on going to Tokyo for All Japan in July so now is the time to train hard and bring my Jiu-Jitsu up! It would be great to bring more of the guys from Kagoshima if anyone is interested let me know! Next week will be light training because the Budokan and Arena are both unavailable.

今週も練習は良かった！毎日、ハードな練習をした！　皆さんは、強くて、すごくいい練習のパートナーで嬉しいです！　７月にオールジャパンのために東京へ行くつもりなので、今は練習頑張る！誰でも参加OK。もし、東京に行きたい人がいたらいつでも連絡ください！来週は武道館とアリーナも休みの日が多いので練習は少ないです。

Its really great to see enthusiasm for Jiu-Jitsu growing in Kagoshima! The level here is improving all the time!

鹿児島の人は益々、熱心になってきている！皆さんの技はだんだんうまくなります！

5/15-5/21

Back to training after Dumau. I always feel more motivated to train after a competition! Improve on mistakes that were made and be ready for the next one! I hope to be able to make it to a few competitions across Japan before the Asian Open in September. I hope we can bring a good group to Tokyo for the Asian Open and represent Kagoshima!!

試合が終わったでも、練習は続きます！試合の後、いつももっと頑張らないとと思う。間違いのところよく考えたり、フィジカルも準備したり！アジアオープンの前にいろいろな試合出たい！鹿児島の人々の多くが行くことを願っています！

 Classes were a little small this week but we still got our training in! As long as you can push yourself you can get good training regardless! 

今週、ちょっと少ないけど練習は良かった！自分を鼓舞する、いい練習できます！ 

Dumau Kyushu 5/15

Just got done at Dumau South. A long day but a great competition and a lot of fun! 

Dumau Southは終わりました！時間がかかりましたけど楽しかった。いつもいい試合でした！

 I took first place at weight against Takamoto-san！
体重級では、高本さんんに勝った！

 At open weight I won my first two matches by submission and lost in the final to Takahashi-san！

無差別級、最初二回試合一本で勝ったけど最後の試合負けちゃった！

5/8-5/14

Last week of training before Dumau! And we are ready for tomorrow! We be up early tomorrow morning to drive up to Saga and will be back late tomorrow night! Should be another great tournament and I can't wait to get on the mats tomorrow!

今週の練習は試合前最後でした。準備ができました！明日は早く起きて、佐賀県へ行って、夕方帰ります。試合は楽しみです！明日までに待てません！

 This week we had a day of training over at Kagoshima Arena because the Budokan was closed.  Next week we will too because of a few closed days at the Budokan. 

今週の火曜日は武道館がしまったので、鹿児島アリーナで練習した。来週の木曜日も同じです。
