Exciting News!

Just had my first judo lesson, it mainly involved throwing round a 14 year old girl but I enjoyed myself.

wasn't winning as no competition involved just learning some basics

It's not the size of the room it's what you do with it.

"Have to wonder why they paired you up with a 14 year old girl "

Without being negative, thats an interesting point though.

When I (Al) was doing a lot of Judo, we would do our best to match like for like, and also against non-instructing higher fans who would deliberately leave staged openings to allow the real beginners a feel for discovering and executing the moves they were being shown.

Still the Sensei can only work with what he has I suppose, were there many white belts or people of your size?

As it's easter not many people turned up and most others were orange or brown belts the girl i was with was a green belt. Next week should have a wider range of skill levels

It not uncommon for new starts to be paired with someone much younger/smaller if that someone has more experience...

LOL OK not a real beginner then, and with a green belt should know enough to deal with a new start

Good luck though, I hope you have fun. (and few more to play with next time)

I played Judo for nearly 20 years. Don't get too big headed over throwing a 14 yr old about the tatami - once she gets a bit more experience, watch out..... she'll pummel you into the floor...

In Judo, size does not matter. Technique is everything..

Hope I didn't come across as big headed I certainly didn't mean to. I'm sure I was paired with her as she knew how to take a fall weel and handle a beginner.

Good on you. Judo is a fantastic sport and great exercise.

You'll want to avoid cauliflower ears however
