Sorry for not writing in a while - things have gotten busy at work, but thankfully, I still have some time to go and play judo. I have been really working hard at fine-tuning my footwork. Not just Ashi-Waza but Ayumi-Ashi as well. I am debating if I should get one of those sweeping tools that I have heard about (and seen when visiting a dojo). Needless to say, I have seen some improvement in the way I move. I haven't developed a solid attack plan yet, but at the same time, I have become much harder to throw. I guess I need to keep practicing. If you see someone practicing footsweeps on a NYC city subway platform, please say hi :)
