Note:
Class of 5 with 2 kids, and one missing person (who was at the right time at the wrong place...) The first time training in Akasaka, it went very well.

It was my third bokken class, and I felt I got slightly better than last time.

As my flipping gets better ( I believe that whats happening) , I think I can come to the point to make the angle change (even just a little bit). I still am very much working on flipping higher, yet changing the angle is also important (I think) , I think it means that I can choose to flip instead of giving everything to Shite, and not to fall down when angle is not right. Shihonage-kuzushi is very very scary (and painful) if you can not flip out of it. What I found today was to change my body angle almost to the other way, then it comes closer to flip.
