Friday, February 15, 2013 session at the JICC main hall

It was good to see Naoki Sempai once again and this time we were able to benefit from his speciality;Ushiro Ryote Dori techniques.

After warming up courtesy of Douglas Kohai, Ben Sempai took us through the following techniques before handing over to Naoki Sempai:

-Ai Hanmi Katatedori Ikkyo(Omote & Ura) and Irimi Nage respectively.

Naoki took over the rest of the session and this is what he had in store for us:

-Ushiro Ryote Dori:Shiho Nage(Omote) and Kokyu Ho respectively.

-Hanmi Handachi Shiho Nage.

We topped up the two hours with the famous back stretch Haishin Undo.

A word of advice for those joining Aikido:Kindly relax during the sessions and avoid tensing up too much.I almost broke a lady's elbow while doing Haishin Undo as she was so tensed up she ended up sliding and landing on her elbow.

NEXT SESSION:TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 19 @ THE JICC CONFERENCE ROOM.
