Wednesday Night at the Dojo 11/7

Aikidokas: Tim, Brad, and Trey

The Walk: as usual.

Ukemi: nothing to report. We brought out the crash pad for Brad tonight to give him a really soft landing spot to straighten out his rolls. It helped quite a bit.

Releases: They went ok

Techniques:

Trey was tori for his usual set of techniques: Shomen-ate, Aigamae-ate, Gyakugamae-ate, and Ushiro-ate. He did amazingly well. He had a great night and I took lots of falls.

We also did some work on Gedan-ate. He managed to take me down with the technique several times, but at about 70% correct. We've got some tweaking to do.

Aftermath: I slept well after taking all of those falls. Forward rolls on Monday. I hope.
