Aikido Friday Night - 4/3/09

Aikidokas: Tim, Trey, Kim, and Tom.

Ukemi: Just watched over Tom.

The Walk: As usual.

Releases: Worked with Tom. Noticed a few points where he was using some muscle. He noticed them as well as they tended to be on the side of his slightly bum shoulder.

Techniques:

Ju Nana Hon Kata

Did some work with Tom on Shomen-ate. We worked on putting the whole thing together and it's coming along amazingly well.

Did some work with Tom in Aigamae-ate. We were doing step by step work and I made a mistake on when to do the hip switch. There needs to be another step by uke after the initial off-balance and, when that happens, then it's time for the hip switch.

Owaza Ju Pon

No work on this today

Koryu Dai San No Kata

Aftermath: None of note.
