Ellen Pettersson 14 years old, blue belt and belonging to Färgelanda Judoklubb. Competed and trained diligently and is one of FJK talented competition judoka. Trained Judo since she was 7 and started due to the fact that her big sister already went to Judo. She thought it looked fun so she tried and got stuck since then. Ellen is a wonderful club mate to get to know and have easy laugh. Are also auxiliary trainer in one of our children’s groups for 9-12 year olds and do this with a goodbye. Those who meet her in contest relationships have to do because she has a strong and good balance and a quick technical ability that I admire and I look forward to seeing her again on the race car. She has a personal blog that you can see -> here.

It was a while since I competed but I have competed a lot. So far, I have won 16 gold, 7 silver, 3 bronze and a prize for Best Judoka. Although I have many gold, I’m more proud of some of my bronze and silver, because I know I’ve gotten more fighting for some of these. I remember a special match I won, but I was so sick so I laughed after the match. While like these, I became a little extra proud of winning. It feels really wonderful when you’ve been fighting so hard on the judo mat, so you almost want to spy.

The best thing about Judo is probably my little family that I have received. We are a really good gang!

I’m lucky enough to compete now again in 2012 after the winter, it’s fun to go on competitions. It’s the trip with the good people who make it even more fun to go off the competition.
