Rainy weekend

Rainy weekend training in Chiba and Saitama.

Sunday morning in Kazo, as well as the afternoon Sakado kids class we did some weapon work. A first for some of the students.

happo giri and the connection to kotegaeshi ni、followed with distance and timing practice using kumiken ippon me. Fun class!

The day before in Noda we practiced ryote mochi tenchinage ichi (tachi/suwari), suwari waza ryote mochi kokyuho, katate mochi yonkajo osae ichi, suwari waza katate mochi ikkajo osae ni, jiyu-waza

For the both wrist grasp techniques the focus was on balancing our power equally through both our arms.

For the one wrist grasp waza we worked on controlling our partners shoulder through their elbow position.
