Class led by Merv. Stretch, then we started some in-depth work on oitsuki, gedan barai, and age uke, with a particular focus on shoulder connection, pullback connection, and torso position/rotation (which was remeniscient of a lot of what Oshima Sensei talked about when I was at a special workout at the Oshima Dojo several years ago). We then went through Heian Shodan 10+ times to work further on these aspects. The class was then split into upper and lower divisions and the uppers worked on Kanku, going first through slowly to examine specifics of each technique, then through another 6+ times regular, and then through Basai 3 times, and finally favorite kata (Heian Godan for me) a couple times.
