Brown & Blackbelt class: We got right to work on Konku. We went a lot farther tonight that we had so far before tonight. If that makes any sense. Probably like ¾ of the way through it now. I’m really digging the Kata a good deal so far.

Kata: We picked a Kata and worked on it, tried to pick it apart and perfect it. I kept with Giin since I felt like I could really work it and improve on it. Tonight was tough for some reason. I found my self intimidated by the 3 Blackbelts in class for some reason and it kind of got in my head a bit. I feel like I fought out of it pretty well for the last two times of doing the Kata though.

Kata: Warmed up with some laps while holding a 15# med ball. 2 overhead hold, 10 running, 2 overhead hold, 2 walking. Then did some med ball deadlifts, 20. Good warmup.

We started with Taigo 1, 2 & 3, then drilled Giin.

Weapons: We started off with drilling kicks. 4 each nice and slow, then one at full speed. Both sides. We then split off and worked on Sai Kata for most of the class. It felt great, I very much love Sai. Then before the end of class we drilled kicks again, 2x each.

Evening adult class. We started with some PT. Running ~10 laps with a 15# medball. Then rounds of push ups. I think about 50 in all. Not a bad workout. Then we did Taigo 1, just the footwork part for ~5 times. Then drilled Taigo 1 full for ~3 times. We then drilled Seisan ~3 times. Loved class a lot tonight. Good hard work and pushed a bit.
