Somehow I have a tendency of aiming at Tori's belt knot instead of the solar plexus when executing a Chudan Tsuki attack but I guess bad habits die hard.
The first hour as is now customary during Monday class was conducted by Daniel Sempai and the techniques on offer were:
Sumi Otoshi and Chudan Tsuki Irimi Nage. In Sumi Otoshi,it is imperative not to pull Uke but rather guide him while turning one's hips then stepping in with one's whole body while controlling Uke's arm at the elbow.
The second hour belonged to Sensei and he took us through:
a)Ikkyo(Omote and Ura!)
b)Nikyo (Ura)
c)Sankyo (Omote and Ura)
d)Irimi nage
e)Koshinage
All the above techniques were executed from an Ushiro Ryote dori attack.
Sensei pointed out the importance of locking in both elbows and keeping one's point to bring up Uke's elbows for a smooth execution of an Ushiro Ryote dori technique.
Shomen Uchi Irimi Nage also featured and once again Sensei pointed out the importance of letting Uke's shomen go until the end while controlling his elbow.
Next session:Wednesday, October 19.
