Kids' Gi

Since the kids have taken up judo/brazilian jiu jitsu, i'm seriously considering buying them each a gi. These are different from the karate gi which is made of flimsier cloth. The judo gi has to be of a weave tough enough for the throws and what-have-yous that the kids have to go through. But at Php 1800 each, i have to think long and hard before buying it. Well, more the kids than me. Gosh, I told the kids once I buy them the gi, there’s no turning back for them! They'll really have to take these judo classes seriously from then on. Imagine, the expense for the gi and the monthly fees as well. Oh, i dread the thought of Patrick suddenly deciding that judo/BJJ is not for him. But judging from the pics, the boys are both enjoying their "rough play". Patrick is seen here with Stephen Kamphuis, the head instructor and owner of the dojo, while Paolo is seen 'wrestling' with one of his classmates at judo class. I'm pretty sure the expenses are all worth it, considering what they'll get in turn... discipline, and a way of defending themselves. Plus, the feeling of being part of a cohesive group, or better yet, a 'family' in the dojo. :)
