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.

HORSE SHOW AT CHIDDINGLY

Oscar went to support his best friend at his horse show, this is Ester the horse saying hello to Oscar.
 
 
Here Ester has been placed 4th in mountain and moorland in hand ridden, this is their first show together and wow well done girls.
 
 
Oscar's bestest friend Ewan on his new pony Ester at Chiddingly Horse Show, Ewan entered the handy pony class which was really cool, he had to ride Ester through flags and lines of bells, pick up small rings and place them on hooks, dismount and lead Ester through a horse trailer, mount up and then back up and grab a knights sword and strike three panels and finally pick up a flag and a Olympic torch and place them back in a small holder, he did fantastic.

OOOPPS !!! OSCAR TOLD HIS JUDO TEACHER HE WAS BORED !!!!!!!

YOKO-SHIHO-GATAME
 
 
Oscar told his Judo teacher that he was bored, Brave Boy! ! !   Well he was truly put through some more advanced judo moves by his instructor in this lesson.  Oscar worked really really hard and concentrated on remembering the techniques for this move as next week his lessons as requested by Oscar have been pepped up !!!
 
 

YOKO-SHIHO-GATAME 4th MON
 
This move that Oscar is practising is Escape from Yoko-shiho-gatame.  I am the Tori holding down my uke, to escape the uke will try to bridge and roll, I grab the back of my uke's jacket and had to push up with my legs and then try to grab the inside of their leg, then we keep rolling over, using our legs for power and my hands for controlling, my uke should end up on top of me holding me down.
 
 
1st stage I kneeled at my partner's side and placed one arm around their neck, my other arm gripped through the legs and onto the belt.

 
 My uke, (daddy) is trying to escape by pushing his torso up like a bridge and rolling over using his legs for power, while controlling me with his hands.
 
 
Here uke has escaped from yoko-shiho-gatame and ended up on top of me holding me down.
