Aikido for 02/04/2009

Jake and I were the only people to show up so we had a more advanced class. After warm-up we practiced the following tachi-waza techniques:

• Shomenuchi (5 techniques, uke choice)
• Ushiro Ryokatatori (5 techniques, uke choice)
• Munetori (both hands grabbing label) (5 techniques, uke choice)
• Tsuki (5 techniques, uke choice)

We then practiced the following with paired bokkens:

• 1st kata
• 2nd kata
• 3rd kata

My father and brother Jarrett are coming to visit me this weekend to go ice fishing. I told Jake I would try to make to class but that might not happen depending on Saturday plans. I will give Jake a call to let him know if I won't be there.
