The good thing about having a critical mass of members is when even as many as a third or even half of your members can't make it, you still have a good number of players on the mat.
That's what I've been aiming for all this while and I'm glad to say we are nearly there with our good mix of old and new members.
It was the first time being in the studio for most of the players and the feedback was very positive. The space isn't huge but they really liked the ambience and fittings. The lighting is elegant and the aircond much appreciated. The high-quality roll-out mats were a big hit too. Too many of us have had bad experiences training on hard, thin mats and having quality mats that provide adequate cushioning makes a big difference.
I had set a modest and simple training program for our first session, taking into account that most of our players are not in shape, having not trained for two months, and the fact that we have some beginners among us. Because the program was not overly ambitious, we managed to get all the things we wanted done and on time.

Fantastic group of people. |
We are off to a good start. I'm hoping we can sustain this momentum so we can achieve greater heights in the weeks and months to come.
