My Amazing Oscar

This is a dedication of acheivement for my amazing son Oscar who despite his profound disabilities lives life to the full. I wanted to share the magical and inspiring attitude of my young man, who has shown no matter what any profession or person tells you that you probably won't be able to take part or be included in regular hobbies and daily activites that we all take for granted, you have to try it for yourself and make your own decision. The proof here is that so far Oscar has not found many that he truly could not take part in , in some way or another, for example riding the Pirates of the Carribean ride at Walt Disney World Orlando, alligator seeing in the everglades, taking up Judo, swimming with dolphins, riding the quad bike up the stables and being one of 14,231 pirates who reclaimed the Guniess World Record in 2012.

OSCAR'S FAB JUDO LESSON

 

 
Lots of warm up exercises and my instructor was seeing how far I can stretch and bend my legs.
 
 
Lots of  dragging and pushing back and forth zig zag warming up exercises.

 
Kesa-gatame
I start by sitting next to my uke, and I then wrap my arm around their neck, holding their jacket.  I tuck ukes's arm tightly under mine and spread my legs into a T position.
 


 
My uke is escaping from my hold, he does this by trapping my legs with his own and then he grabbed me around my waist and move towards me, he catches my leg with his legs.

 
Here I am learning how it feels to have the weight of my uke on top of me.
