Kumite routines

Sensai recommends developingĀ  kumite routines of 3-4 attacks to use when free sparring.

Worked on a combination routine he practiced:

Step forward left, strike uraken with same side. Shift to the right, punch right gyaku-zuki. Then, leaning back slightly for distance, kick mawashi-geri left.

This became the theme of the class, first on the punching bag, and then in partner drills.

Worked on Fukyugata ā… , Pinan and Naihanchi Shodan

In Naihanchi Shodan, the fists should be on the same plane when executing the double punch (kiai).

Free sparring for the last 15 minutes of class. Sensai asked us to work on our own combination attacks
