Kids Place at Minnesota Classic
Hanssen Boys Place in Minnesota
Brayden (5th Junior Rank) and Jayce Hanssen (4th Junior Rank), students at the Des Moines Judo & Sambo Academy, and sons of instructor Ryan Hanssen, both participated in the Minnesota Classic. The tournament was held at the North Dale Recreation Center in St. Paul Minnesota on September 15th, 2024. The boys placed 3rd and 4th in their respective weight classes and generally made an impressive showing. Their proud papa was proud to show off footage of each taking down an opponent with “Koshi-Guruma” (“Hip Wheel”) a hip throw performed on an opponent held in a headlock. Both boys are regular competitors, and we look forward to seeing them on the mat more in the coming months.
