For starters, let me say that I really didn’t want to go to karate tonight. I had a really long/bad day at the office, and I really wanted to just sit down and veg out tonight. But after Paul called, we both decided it was best if we worked out. So off to the dojo we went!
Tonight was a master class in roundhouse kick. We did various two-kick combinations, starting with the rear leg and later the front leg. Eventually we did these kicking combinations with a partner, where they would provide targets with their hands as they moved back. We wrapped up the class with a few Heian Yondan kata, then Tekki Shodan, and finally our own personal kata (Sochin for me).
For whatever reason, my left hip still continues to hurt. It’s affecting how high I can kick on my left, and how dynamic of a motion I can make when stepping down after kicking. Time for some ibuprofen!
