Aikido for 01/12/2009

Last night's Aikido class was one of the largest yet (I realize going from one other person to three people is still very small) with Jake, Joey, and Hawk practicing.

We warmed up and because of the small size of the mats, we had to practice our front and back rolls in a line. We then practiced the following techniques:

1. Katate-dori ikkyo (gyaku-hanmi) (omote) and (ura)


2. Shomenuchi iriminage

I felt the two-week plus of not practicing. I only have Wednesday's night class before I will be practicing for an intensive four and half days at the Aikido Bridge Seminar. I am looking forward to my first San Diego Aikido seminar.
