Class led by Haycraft Sensei. Jog and stretch, then a focus on gedan barai and oizuki, getting the first half of the motion to happen faster and put the hips into it sooner to effectively defend/evade the incoming attack (gedan barai) or initiate the attack faster (oizuki). We then followed up trying to apply the same to age uke with a partner making jodan attacks, first oizuki then gyaku zuki, and after that we stood against a wall defending against jodan attacks (including countering in the later portion). We finished with kata, the upper ranks going through Basai some 10+ times.
