Training Log: 03/18/2014

Class began with ukemi, including unorthodox dive rolls. We moved on to some open-door and leading techniques from one and two punches, experimenting with alternating threats to confuse the attacker. The rest of class focused on Ryusui Iki, such as Tomoe Nage and Yoko Nagare, and ended with Hito.

Thursday Trainings: Discontinued

Due to a minor lack of interest, but primarily my increasingly-hectic personal schedule, the dojo’s training schedule will revert back to having class only on Tuesdays, with Robert still teaching on the first Thursday of every month. Same bat-time, same bat-place, same bat-cost as before ($10/class).

Training Log 03/11/2014

After standard ukemi (with a little bit of a twist), we brought out a chair and performed ukemi from being seated in the chair.

The primary focus of the class was on suwari gata, working through Ichi Geki and Osai Komi. We finished the class with techniques for lying prone with the attacker on top, using a variation of O Gyaku to assist.
