Tonight’s workout was a good one. We started out with basics and moved quickly moved into combinations. They weren’t too demanding tonight, and I was feeling good by the time kata came around. Dale-san had us run through our first and second least favorite kata, I selected Hangetsu and Kanku Dai. I don’t like Hangetsu because Hangetsu-dachi makes me feel like an awkward duck and I always mess up the order of the segments in Kanku Dai.
After that, we went through Gojyushiho Dai a few times, WOW its been awhile since I’ve done that kata. We wrapped up the night with our favorite kata, so of course I did Sochin. Fun stuff!
I talked to Dale-san about my plan to pick up some workouts at the Arvada dojo (one of Yaguchi’s branch dojos), which is closer to my house and workplace. I’m going to start going there regularly and pick up classes in Denver as I can make it. That way I can get back to more regular training. Everyone I talked to about the matter said the guy that runs the Arvada dojo is a very good instructor, so I’m pretty excited about it!
