Full set

Twice, as usual.  Then went through some more reps with Dan and Zach

Watched over Troy and Julio

Techniques:

Worked with Troy and Julio on shomen-ate

At the end of class.  Troy and I got some work in.  We worked on 1, 2, and 4 of the kneeling Koryu Dai San.  I was not up for Kote Gaeshi, kneeling.  We tried the variants of #2: Gedan-ate and Gyauk gamae -ate.  Tim's now liking the Gyaku variant. 

I then ran through the first 14 of Koryu Dai Yon.

Aftermath:

Felt much better after the session than I did last week.
