serindeSo even though the dojo was open last week after Monday, I only ended up going one day on accounta busy work foo. This means that I've effectively had two weeks off. My form is reflecting this fact, alas. Fortunately I was working with Sevinna (whose name I am probably dramatically misspleling), and she was quite helpful in correcting my numerous minor errors.
We were the all...er, munetori I think? Uke grabs nage's "shirt lapel", if you will...channel today. So, backstretch, then nikkyo, then sankyo, then yonkyo (argh), then throwing across the room, which is always good for a laugh. Sweaty workout but well within tolerances. Yay. I'd also like to take this moment to be very happy about my ability to roll. The quality-of-life improvement inherent in that skill add sometimes gets drowned out in my frustration with my current crop of errors, and I should periodically take a step back and appreciate past successes.
My upper arm still hurts occasionally in bizarre fashion when grabbed. Must ask Dr. Nick what's up with that.
