Friday, April 26, 2013 session at the JICC main hall

Usually the Friday session is my favourite for two main reasons:The first one is that I always get time to warm up before the session kicks off and the second reason is that it is usually fast paced and this particular one was no exception.Ben Sempai took us through warm up followed by Mae and Ushiro Ukemi including the dreaded Gyaku Ukemi.

BEN SEMPAI:

-Katatedori: Kokyu Nage(opening for Soto Kaiten Nage).

-Ushiro Ryo Kata Dori Kokyu Nage.

-Ryo Kata Dori Kokyu Nage.

MOA SEMPAI:

-Katatedori: Tai No Tenkan Ho.

-Kata Dori Nikyo Ura.

-Ai Hanmi Katatedori Ikkyo Ura (featuring a different version of unbalancing Uke).

We are really learning a lot of Aikido versions from our resident Swedish Aikidoka Moa who apparently was in Japan the past few months enriching her Aikido know how. 

NEXT SESSION:TUESDAY, APRIL 30 @ THE JICC CONFERENCE ROOM.
