Aiki with Patrick M., Kel, and Rick
Today we discussed getting in rhythm with uke, like Musashi was talking about in the passage
I posted a few days ago...
Tegatana with emphasis on shortening steps to keep in synch with an external pace.
Hanasu with emphasis on shortening or stretching steps to get in synch during releases #1 and #3. From there we played with brushing off and disengaging. #2 turns into a particularly fabulous brushoff if tori stays light on the feet, times uke's near footfall and brushes himself off of uke.
Koryu dai ichi section B with emphasis on staying light on the feet and flowing around obstacles.
