Weapons. We worked Bo 1 & 2 a couple of times each, then did Tonfa 2x times and Sai 2x times. The we poured some focus into the Green Belt who is testing for Brown in May. Had her work her weapons 2x times each and gave feedback. She is awesome and is going to pull through as long as she prepares properly.

Weapons. We went through all our weapons. Starting with Tonfa, all strikes/combos 20x each. Then we did Tonfa 1 Kata 2 times. Then Sai 1, 3 times. Then Bo 1 and Bo 2 a couple of times. Good class reviewing weapons for sure.

Brown & Blackbelt Class. We worked on Bokken (which I found out is the 8th set of Self Defense). We worked basic strikes and then Bokken 1. Attack and defense. Good stuff.

Weapons. We started with kicks then did Taigo 1, 4-5 times with push-ups in between. Then split up and worked Bo 1 and 2 over and over. I got to do Bo 2 on my own for Sensei and I put everything I had into it. Wasn’t perfect but I fought hard with it.

First class back after Blackbelt test. Man, my endurance is shot… The test took more out of me than I thought.
We started with basic kicks 2x each. Then did Bo 2 about 4 times as a group. We then broke out into smaller groups and we worked on Sai 1 and basic Sai strikes.
Good night all around. Now i’m pooped…
