Jiu Jitsu this week was cool. I've gotten more into the class. We're starting to learn some really cool stuff that is pretty exciting. We learned something called a helicopter armbar that was really fun. It looks so complicated but it's actually easier once you start practicing it. Now that I get to participate in class with everyone else as a fellow student, I'm enjoying it more. I'm learning more too I think.
I've been trying to focus on getting ready for the tournament in May so I'm practicing my forms a lot and just squeezing in as much grappling and sparring as I can. It's not that far away anymore though. I was hoping I'd be further along by now. Well, I'll jsut have to keep practicing and do my best. In China we had a demostration day every wednesday where we performed our forms for the instructor one by one. It was really nerve wracking but Im glad that we did it now because I'm hoping I won't be as nervous at the tournament. Our instructor there said that the reason we did that every week was to practice staying calm in stressful situations. It works too. Week by week it became easier to get through the class and not get really nervous.
