Happy New Year 2010!

My Aikido Goal for this year:
*Get better at Uke
*No Test

I must confess... I named my blog "Hungry White Pajamas" being inspired by "Angry White Pyjamas"... : )



7:00 Class: Yokomen Uchi
I remember having the hard time learning this "Yokomen Uchi" in the beginning days. Its still hard but I think not knowing what to expect to do was the hardest part (for anything, this was one of the hardest)

Sensei broke all the steps and moved one step at a time.

1. Just to block
2. Block low and Pivot inside
3. Block high and Pivot outside

 This is how far we got today, I wish we had another 20 mins to get into the techniques from there but I guess we have to come back to see how it goes after those points : )
