Friday's Class

We reviewed several techniques from Tachi Waza Gyaku Hanmi, namely,
  • Kote Gaeshi
  • Irimi Nage
  • Nikyo
  • Rokkyo
  • Shiho Nage

Now, there were several forms of the Kote Gaeshi. One was totally new, and involved an initial setup similar to Kaiten Uchi. It's just interesting to see how techniques morph and blend into each other. Variants of Kote Gaeshi exist - just a reminder.

End of class involved the surprising of Uke with the various techniques, which really makes one have to remember them. Of the techniques we were asked to use were those listed above, but included others covered during previous classes and even last year's seminar!
