| Over 35 enthusiasts gathered at John Skillen's superb training facility in Loughborough for the latest combatives training event.  We started with a PowerPoint overview of Counter-grappling concepts, then warmed up with Si,before going into some specific areas of combatives conditioning. Next was the main topic of the day, the applied counter-grapling work. This included a module by Si Squires on dealing with takedowns, and cconfronting the skilled assailant. After a Q&A session we held a book signing, then adjourned to a local Chinese buffet for the traditional post training scoff.  [John and Den at the book signng]Great group of guys, and a very enjoyable day. More photos and details to follow.

| Sorry to have missed the session - I was in no fit state to drive let alone train yesterday. I'm going to have to visit Liverpool at some point soon. | |
