2008 Workout #16: Turn up the heat, let’s go!

Tonight was a small crew… , myself, Erbe, and a handful of yellow and white belts. Sensei Brewer showed up just in the nick of time to run us through an extremely solid basics class. After the basics were complete, we split into two groups and Sensei ran us through Tekki Nidan and Bassai Dai.

The second class was sparring combinations and some great fundamental sparring drills. We lined up all in a row and worked on applying different combinations with a focus on moving using our hips and legs, not reaching or leading with the head and shoulders.

We finished off the night with five Heian kata in five minutes, which was just the burn I was looking for in order to deep six the rest of this cold. Good times, can’t wait for Saturday!
