Just had my first CJJ class. It was very good, we started off with some basic quick warmups and then he taught us how to fall and land. He then taught us some basic throws and trips and then some ground submissions and some grappling. I found it a lot more interesting than BJJ as it included 50% throws/trips and 50% ground work whereas when I did some BJJ it was 95% ground work. Moreover, I was also fascinated by the disciplinary and cultural/traditional aspects of it (eg. bowing to the sensei everytime he shows u something, meditating for a bit and not talking or laughing whilst training which was prevelant in BJJ). It was more of a martial art whereas BJJ seemed like more of a sport, which is awesome, but i'm just looking for something more traditional.
Hope Aikido goes just as well.
Cheers.
