Hayakawa Seminar - Day 1 (30/4/05)

The turnout for the first day of Mr. Hayakawa-san's seminar at the South China Athletic Aossociation in Causeway Bay was very good. It was good to see that it wasn't all just Jiu-Jitsu players but also Judo players turning up as well.

The seminar started off with warm ups that they do in Brazil for about 10 minutes.

After that for the remainder of the seminar concentrated on self defence techniques. This is good because a lot of the self defense techniques are not taught very much in Jiu-Jitsu classes these days and originally Helio Gracie developed Brazilian Jiu- Jitsu as a form of self defense.

To sum up, Day 1 seminar was an enjoyable one, getting back to the basics and learning what Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu was originally developed for.
