Aikido for 12/07/2010

Tonight Ken started class with a warm-up and we worked on the first couple of the 13 tai chi movements. It is enjoyable and a good warm-up for the rest of class. Tonight we worked on breaking uke's balance, a kazitza(and my Japanese and memory are at fault here). We started from katatetori kokyunage and then worked in a dynamic attack that Ken had the five of us practice in a line. We worked on a number of different variations before ending with a munetsuki with a quick JKD-like entry to an iriminage. Good stuff.
