Warm-ups eased seamlessly into a focus on controlling our upper and lower body seperately, then into some kicking kihon. We then worked on distancing, trying to come to better terms with our personal “bubble”, and controlling it, and therefore your opponent. The drill lasted for some time, slowly adding complexity to it.
Last we worked on Kanku. This is a new kata for me, and a long and complex one. I don’t expect I’ll pick it up nearly as fast as others, but at the same time, once I get the pattern down, it seems it won’t be too difficult.
