BJJ-ASIA in Copa KLN 2

Thanks for BJJ ASIA and Luke to support the event!!






PORRA, KLN BJJ!!!

Copa KLN 2 has successfully ended on last Sunday. I think we did more than excellent job with what we have in our hand.

Also all the KLN warriors showed tuff heart during the matches. Most of you are training less than few month and most of other fighters have longer experiences than you. Amount of training really lead you to improvements, so if you are motivated from the competition, lets train harder for the next one!!

All the volunteers who did magnificent help, really x 2 thanks! Especially guys helped out to do referee, we are so appreciated of your support (The most stressful job in BJJ)!! Also, thanks to Hoin (AKA lover boy) for organising and running the event.

The official result is to be announced on coming Wed.
Here is quick results of KLN boys. (As far as I can remember)

Forrest (Proved he is the real punisher) : Blue belt Meio-pessado Champion
Matthew : Blue belt Medio Champion
Leo 1 : Blue belt galo Champion
Martin : White belt Meio-pessado 2nd place

Amazing BJJ Week to AOW14!

Oga-Mako


At AOW 14


After seminar

The last week of September 2009 was really an excellent 7 days for KLN BJJ.

We had Ken from Angra Tokyo, Prof. Ikuta from Trust Jiujitsu and Makoto Ogasawara from Taiwan BJJ! Thank you very much for teaching us and your friendship.

We are a bit confused at the moment coz we were taught too many techniques and concepts in such a short period! KLN guys, I have taken movies and notes, so lets train together and make sure to try all of the techniques. We have enough homework to fulfill rest of the year!!

Also, Macau trip with about 20 members were so much fun!!! (but really tired...). Reminded a high school activity, haha!! Thanks Gus for organising AOW event and providing special arrangement for us!

Oh, remember. We'll have "Rodo" from this week!
Thank you all and see you on the mat!

RAS,
