Ladies Training and Grading

Following on from our last successful Ladies Training Sunday in July, The Budokwai ran another session on Sunday October 11th.

Taken by Simone Callender with Nadia Minardi as support coach we were taken through a rigorous session of tachi-waza and ne-waza drills with a short break to recover between the two.

This was a great chance to improve techniques with the help and advice from two highly regarded female judokas.

Peter Blewett and Steve Fraser were there at the end to run the grading session which quite a few women took advantage of, having already been well warmed up.

The Budokwai would like to thank Simone and Nadia for their time and commitment and also to Steve and Peter for their support and belief in pushing women’s judo to the fore.
