Taido, 4.10.

Theme of session was stopping into kamae and motionlessness, in the beginning we concentrated on blocking movement of hands, straight, sharp movements, full range of motion, timing. Taking kamae, moving forwards and backwards, use of hip in that movement. In the end taking kamae after manjigeri. No getting up and then descending into kamae, but straight into kamae..

My toe has healed a bit, no ejidachi yet, but cautious ryunen dachi is ok. I broke it three weeks ago. stepped on rolled toes, putting all my weight on big toe, I think I was doing senjogeri. Doctor said that it might be broken, x-ray pictures didn't show clear fracture, there were some sharp looking bone in slightly wrong place or something, that might mean that there is a fracutre. She told me to not do taido for 1 month. Well, I think there is enough punishment in just cautious training.. I just avoid straining my toes. Like doing ejidachi so that if my back leg is injured one, it's not the ball of the foot that touches ground, but instep. It's bit awkard but it has worked.


Tema: stoppa och stanna orörlig på kamae. Använding hands riktigt, ta kamae, manöver framöt och bakåt, kamae efter manjigeri
