I got back from my first night at Tamura's institute, and I loved every second of it! I had the most fun I've had in a long time, and felt great! I performed wonderfully, and felt really good about myself there, and I stayed about a half hour after class to roll with some black belts. We wen harcore for 15 minutes, and it was so great! One of the blackbelts there said I had one hell of a potential, and I'm going back early tomorrow night to get in some more mat time with him. He pinned me with a version of Yokoshiho I hadn't seen at the end of the 15 minute sparring match, and he's going to show me some new moves tomorrow. Really wonderful time, and my BJJ training let me hang with the blackbelts, and actually train with them in some hard rolling! Damn, I love rolling!
Sorry guys, I'm a bit excited right now. To the guys who told me about the school, thank you. You were absolutely right. It seems wonderful. So now I'm officially a judoka again.

Take care

Also wanted to give the proper respects to the instructors there. They are great guys, friendly, knowledable, approachable, and modest. Best time I had working out in a while Sensei Tamura is amazing! His teaching style is just incredible.

Take care,
Ryu
