Aikido Thursday Night - 1/11/18 - Wasabi Dojo

Aikido players:

John, Adam, and Willie

Ukemi:

Not tonight.

The Walk:

Not tonight.

Releases:

Not tonight.

Techniques:

I worked as tori on the entire run of Kroyu Dai San offensive jo techniques (1 thru 8).

Adam then ran through them all with Willie as uke.  We spent a lot of time working on both players to try to get them in sync.  Willie's a 3rd brown and has not seen any of these techniques before.  With both folks relatively new at it, we were able to explore problems and approaches to teaching these techniques that might not be necessary/visible at higher levels.

I ran through all 8 again at the end of class with Adam as uke again.

Commentary:

None of note.
