＜BJJ Trainees(ブラジリアン柔術修行者の方々へ)＞
昨今多くのBJJ経験者らが柔道に関心を持ち、お越しいただいており、当館としましてもこうした方々に向けて広く門を広げたいと考えております。他方、こうした方々の傾向としまして、ご自身らの自身に反して、柔道に必要な総合的な技量・経験を持ち合わせていない方々がいらっしゃることも確かです。従いまして、当館での稽古に必要な、柔道に必要な技量・ルールを事前によく理解し、これを尊重し一般稽古に臨んでください。
安全上の理由から、寝技を中心とした攻防は通常の一般稽古において、立ち技の乱取り稽古とぶつかる、また通常の柔道のルールにはない技などを行うことで柔道修行のみを行う者への危険性があるため、行わないか、相手、指導員の許可を得て道場の隅等の限られたエリアを設けて実施していただきます。尚、寝技に特化した時間などは実施しておりませんので予めご承知おきください。
また正しい転び方（受け身）が出来ない方については一般稽古での稽古をお断りさせて頂くことをあらかじめご了解くださいますようお願いいたします。（指導員が稽古途中、中止を勧告した場合速やかにこれに従ってください。尚、中止・退場による返金は致しませんので予めご了承ください）
Recently, many people with BJJ experience have shown an interest in judo and have come to our dojo, and we would like to open our doors to a wider audience. On the other hand, it is also true that some of these people tend to lack the overall skills and experience necessary for judo, contrary to their own abilities. Therefore, we ask that you understand and respect the rules and techniques required for judo before training at our facility.
For safety reasons, offense and defense centering on Newaza may conflict with standing Randori practice in general training, and may be dangerous to those who practice only Judo by performing techniques that are not included in the normal rules of Judo. The rules are not to be used for Newaza. Please note that there is no specialized time for Newaza.
Please note that those who are not able to perform the correct way to fall (ukemi) will not be allowed to practice in the general training sessions. （If the instructor recommends cancellation of a practice session, please follow the instructor’s advice as soon as possible. Please note that no refunds will be made for cancellations or withdrawals.)
