Aikido for 05/31/2011

Last night Ken taught class and after warming-up (I actually lead the warm-up because Ken was having some knee problems) we worked on the following techniques:

• katatetori tenkan kokyunage
• Ken then had us do the same technique only as a jo dori where nage needs to make a deep tenkan movement
• kosadori ikkyo-style kokyunage where uke blends into the attack before it arrives; doing this from static is a lot harder
