Sorry for the lack of posts for the last week, but works was insane… visitors from out of town to entertain, plus I was traveling a bit as well. One of our stops was to Reno Nevada, where we had to do a photo shoot for my company. My son, Tyler and I went there [...]
So last night we worked a bit on our head, arm, and hip throws, and then moved on to our bridging. I gotta tell you, from my wrestling days I felt I was a pretty darned good bridger. But the Gi really introduces a new element. Once someone really gets ahold of that gi it [...]
Judo class was really great last night. Unfortunately I was only able to make it for one of the two hours, but still it was very worthwhile. We worked a bunch on the Osoto Gari , a common Judo move. The problem with the Osoto Gari is that it is common enough that people tend [...]
As many of you might already know, I just moved this blog from utahjudo.wordpress.com. I’m super excited to have this new domain name, and the site more under my control. We will be putting a pretty face on the site over the next week, and should also be setting up on Feedburner, as well as [...]

Okay, so here’s the [...]
So this past weekend was the first time I have been able to make it out to Judo on a Saturday… but I will not be missing many more saturdays in the future. It was really, really neat. We started by spending some time working on out basic moves, but ended the morning doing Randori [...]
So I have a funny story to tell. We showed up to Judo last night (the class is really filling up BTW), and Mike, our teacher starts by saying, “So I read on someone’s blog that they need to improve their cardio… You can all thank Steve for today.” I cringed. Of course Mike is [...]
I need to open by saying that I love Dan Henderson (in a purely respectful way of course ), and I still think he has the potential to beat Anderson Silva. I think he did a great job of managing the takedowns. The part that surprised me most as the incredible speed of Silva’s [...]
