 This brought more success, as Bluming replaced Inokuma in a "gonin gake" (a judo challenge against five opponents of 3º dan or higher) and accomplished a shocking record of 4 seconds.After his training in Japan, Bluming received a letter from the Netherlands in which Schutte asked him to come back and teach at the old dojo and the Amateurs Association for a year on contract.Bluming went back to teach his old friends, make some new ones, and participate in the 1961 World Judo Championships in Paris in December.
