Aikido for 04/15/2009

Wednesday night's Aikido class was just Jake and I. For the first part of class we worked free-style kokyu-nages from ryo-katadori and katadori attacks. Our intention was to better flow with an attack. Often we freeze up in a freestyle and fall back on one or two techniques. By practicing in a free-style manner, we tried to expand those basic techniques we fall-back to. The second half of class we worked on the 3 Bokken katas and then worked on bokken yokomenuchi strike.

Jake won't be able to make to Saturday's class, he will give me a call if he has time to practice on Sunday.
