Granted, as the title suggests, I am not the most experience or decorated Judoka in the world. Yet I did write an article about Why Judo is better than Team Sports for kids.
I have received a lot of positive feedback for it, and I know other people who have referred and/or linked to it. The thoughts for this article came both from the father in me who'd like to see his kids become Judoka as well. They also came from the coach in me.
I guess you could say that I have always been one to consider my knowledge and insight in any subject as a gift, and another gift being the ability to share that knowledge with others. Maybe one day, my belt will catch up to my abilities and I can be a coach too. For now, I will limit my coaching to solicited advice from my Uke during Uchikomi and Randori :)
