So I've been back into Judo for about 2 weeks now, and some of my reflexes keep coming back. I had a very positive Randori session yesterday where I was very effective at throwing my opponents, including a lot of throws that I hadn't used in a while like Uchimata a Tomoe Nage and even a Tani Otoshi . It feels good to find things that you lost. Unfortunately, it seems that I have found some of the weight I lost too, I will need to work getting it off. On a happier note, I learned that my Sensei had recently been promoted to Shichidan - 7th degree black belt. I need to get him a present.
