Aikido Friday Night - 3/8/2013

Aikido players: Tim, Marvin, Gail, Dan the Elder, Hossein, and Rob

Ukemi:

A couple of warm-up falls.  I then watched over Gail

The Walk:

Twice as usual

Releases:

I worked with Hossein.  We spent a good portion of the evening on releases.  I think most of the other folks did, as well.

Techniques:

We worked on Shomen-ate.  He needs to take the off-balance in his playground and get the footwork correct.

Aftermath:

None of note.  I was wearing volleyball knee pads and was able to do my first lap of knee-walking since my injury in June.  It was nice.  I look forward to the day when I attempt to do it without the knee pads.
