Kokusai Class

Basic:

Kamae
Seiza ho
Hiriki no Yosei-1
Suriashi

Technique:
Kata Mochi Ikkajo Osae-1
Kata Mochi Ikkajo with one arm

Note:

Class of 15 or more. Great practice to work on Kamae. Sensei said, " if you feel like your hips are squared, they are not." its good to know. : )

The first half of the class was a lot harder than it looked. I could not keep my legs in the position until the next count was called towards the end with Hiriki no Yosei-1. I havent been able to pass that limit yet when I'm in pain...

So much to work on to get the better Kamae...so much to remember, so much to do. What shows from these works is very little.
