Sorry for the lack of posts for awhile. Been a bit hectic to say. Couple of things.
a) Comic con is coming up. Get ready to help with the demos in anyway possible.
b) Hataya sensei's visit. We're obviously getting ready for that
c) We have a new tradition at the dojo. Only those who come shall find out what it is
Who - Ron, Henry, Daiki, Neil, Kyle, Julie
Too many people to process so it's hard to remember all the things but key points
a) don't let your tip drop
b) start your kesa to reach for the collar bone
c) when transitioning cuts, make sure your sword and foot stops together
d) loud kiai
e) gyaku kesa should reach out!!!!
f) keep your stance stable, it all starts from there
For those of you who cut
Daiki -
Gyaku kesa and sui hei need to be worked on
Henry -
work on your angles
Ron -
Keep cool and you'll be fine
Sang cut 4 + 3 (last week) + 3 (demo)
Henry cut 3 + 3 (last week) + 2 (demo)
Ron cut 3 + 3 (last week)
Daiki cut 3 + 3 (last week)
