Saturday Morning at the Dojo 12/1

Aikidokas: Tim, and Trey

The Walk: as usual.

Ukemi: No issues. Still not taking standing right-sided.

Releases: Per usual

Techniques:

Shomen-ate, Aigamae-ate, Gyakugamae-ate, Gedan-ate and Ushiro-ate: Little by little, Trey's getting better at these. I'd say he's 70%, maybe 80%, ready for a promotion.

Tim had Trey take a few big falls during warm-ups. He took those easily enough that he got to uke for me on some of the more advanced techniques. I was able to work on Mae-otoshi and Sumi-otoshi. Yahoo! I actually was successful at one rep of Sumi-otoshi.


Aftermath: Sinus infection or cold arrived on the scene a couple of hours before I woke up.
