A Beginner's Point of View 455-456

Day 455:

Today a new student started Iaido classes and another started the paperwork to begin, so the instructor was busy. I did two and a half sets of kata.

In Kendo, the regular instructor was back. So we did normal amounts of suburi. I did not have to step out from lack of breath. We also skipped suri-ashi drills to get right into practice. Going lengthwise again, we did lots of kiri-kaeshi, menouchi, and kote-men-ouchi drills. We then did a series of lead-up drills that culminated in a rapid 4 times menouchi drill where the partner would strike debana-kote or aiouchi-men. I didn’t have to sit out today even once (even though I came close towards the end).

Day 456:

No practice today because of the weather.
