Ashihara
Lunatic warmup – got to give Sensei credit for coming up with novel tortures – usual hard strength warmup with added partnerwork - stair running, fast situps drills, wheelbarrow race including a step, and piggy-back race round the dojo, up and down the stairs and back again. My partner was a slightly built MMA guy who is cross training with the group, he was awesome.
Then some combination air-drills with sabaki and strike-kick combos on the huge kickbags. My back spinning back kicks looking better, thankyou Rick.
Finished with partnerwork and takedowns. I need to spend some time learning how to fall properly, its something thats just been missed in all of this odd mixture that I do, no one has covered it.
I’m always challenged by this stuff. Good class.
