Okay, let's get started.
So I got to the club early, like no one was at the storage room as usual. I'm alone, but a little walk back down to the cafe was alright.
We started with the warm ups as usual, but we didn't have the regular sensei today. There was about 3 new students, two of them started today. After the warm ups, we immediately get into our gear. Only the people who brought their gear down from the storage room would put it on.
So, the club split in two, the group without gear would practice the basics. The group with gear on would also practice the basics, but with more technique to it.
After that, i was put with the adults to practice Ai Men (men cuts, both at the same time, x10, usually be x6). Then everyone got together to practice Uchi Komigeiko (practicing basic techniques by striking in response to openings provided by the motodachi (person acting as instructor))
