It has been just over a month since Guyana’s top Judo club, the Rising Sun Judo and Jiu-Jitsu club, located at Marian Academy, Carifesta Ave., had revamped its training programmes to incorporate Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) training into its system and the results so far have been incredible whereby students are displaying high a proficiency in groundwork techniques (Ne-Waza) especially from the junior ranks.
The whole idea came about when Guyanese Judokas found out that the Brazilian national judo team has both a Judo coach and a Brazilian Jiu- Jitsu coach to make their athletes even stronger in groundwork techniques and they have produced world champions under this system such as Flavio Canto and Rafael Correa who are both black belts in Judo and Brazilian Jiu- Jitsu.
The Rising Sun Judo/Jiu- Jitsu club is trying its best to keep up to date with training practices and tactics that are practiced by the stronger Judo nations in the world such as Brazil.
The Rising Sun Judo/Jiu – Jitsu club is extending congratulations to Andrew Hooper, for being rated by his fellow club-mates as the top athlete of the month by averaging three ‘tap outs’ per randori session, and Jesse Persaud, for being the top junior athlete of the month.
