 Another great session this Sunday as the returning Gary and Stephen Docherty (Who had been away due to illness) took their usual excellent warm-up before taking the class through the break falls, forward rolls, cartwheels, head springs and other moves.
After this head trainer Jon Ritchie took to the mat where he split the class in two and had them line up against opposite sides of the gym, once everyone was facing someone the students then wrestled three minutes of amateur wrestling. Once the three minutes were up one person from each side would join the side that they wasn’t on, so that everyone wrestled someone else.
After the amateur wrestling there was a short break. After the break the newer students were shown from in ring moves and sequences from the likes of Mick O’Rooney, ‘The Maltese Monster’ Farrugia, ‘The Fighting Irish’ Wesley McManus and Beau ‘The Show’ Jaxx while more experienced students were taught some shoot moves by Jon Ritchie inside the gym.
At the Tottenham training session on Wednesday The Grim Reaper and Amit Rambojan graciously took the class as head trainer The Grim Reaper was unable to attend. After a great warm-up Amit took the students through some sparring and striking drills before some excellent chain wrestling.

Head trainer Jon Ritchie then took over as he showed the students various shoot moves that could also be applied to pro situations, which the students all practised in their pairs before taking a short break.
After the break Farrugia took the students through some bigger moves on the crash mats and then some matches took place in the ring before some free time to finish the day off.

A great session this week as Farrugia took an excellent warm-up, before the class practised their break falls, shoulder rolls and other moves.
After this Farrugia asked two students to start from a lock-up and then pick a move to go to, after the move was put on, he asked for another student to replace the student in the hold and the new student had to come up with a reversal and another move to add on.
This continued until we had yet another new sequence that the students practised before a short break.
After the break the students practised the sequence on the mats before eventually performing it in the ring (Which was set up outside due to the good weather) in front of the class.

A great training session today as the The Royal Scotsmen (Gary and Stephen Docherty) took their usual awesome warm-up, before the class practised their break falls, shoulder rolls and other moves before an unexpected but warmly welcomed guest, former World Of Sport wrestler ‘The Mad Monk’ Rasputin showed up and joined the Docherty twins on the mat.
Rasputin then took time to grapple with a handful of people, explaining what he was doing to the class.
Rasputin then wrestled with various students (Including IWC European Heavyweight shoot champion The Grim Reaper and top lightweight contender Beau ‘The Show’ Jaxxs) for around thirty to forty minutes showing that even at his age he can still wrestle with the best of them.
Once Rasputin had left the mat, the students then paired up and each performed the ring run infront of the class. After the ring run was finished the students had some free time, where they practised both on the mat and in the ring.
After the free time The Grim Reaper took students through a sequence in the ring, which he performed with each of them. We had students of all experience in the ring and all of them got the sequence correct, which goes to show both the level of training and how good of a trainer The Grim Reaper is.
A busy gym at Tottenham this week saw Amit Rambojan and The Grim Reaper take students through complicated sequence of pro moves before moving onto some grapelling and submission moves on the mat.

Another great session this week as head trainer Jon Ritchie took the students through the as usual excellent warm-up before pairing the class up and showing a series of moves step-by-step that eventually produced an excellent technical sequence.
After learning the sequence then showing the whole class, Jon taught some of the bigger moves on the crash mats.
After some free time Jon had to leave early to wrestle at an LDN show in Margate, leaving Tottenham head trainer The Grim Reaper to take the last hour of the class.
The Grim Reaper paired the students up again, this time with people who wouldn’t usually wrestle with each other and told them that they had to perform a five minute match, but told them that he wanted three things included during the match.
Also at the gym we were visited by Jimmy Starr and Jonny Love, who we were very pleased to see.
Wednesday saw The Grim Reaper taking his students through a punishing routine as always but followed with some great mat wrestling and a lesson in promos.
