yuuagoWent to the Pride YMM meetup tonight. We talked things over a bit. The main thing that we (locally) can do right now re: the UCP is letter writing. There are tentative plans for a protest next month, but considering it's going to be a bit of time, we'll see if that actually happens.
And then I left early to go to judo.
Attending: Me, M, M2, A, Ch, + teenagers H, Kz, Ja. We also had a new guy, Co. V-sensei and N instructing.
Started off with 100 uchikomi. I partnered with A, and stuck with him for the rest of the class. Like previous, I tried to do 10 different throws, but wasn't quite as effective this time - somewhere along the way I lost track of which ones I had done, and forgot things. Will have to try to keep track better later.
Next, gripbreaking. We practiced the three typical ways for a bit, with breaks. It's getting a little easier for me, though I still have issues - not so much with breaking but with keeping my own grip. Bleh.
After that, throwing practice. We went slow and easy with it. Tried out a few different ones. I worked on sesai a bit; still find it tricky.
Overall, good class! Not as tiring as the last one.

Date: 2024-02-08 03:21 pm (UTC)There are some templates floating around, so hopefully I'll be able to put some letters together this weekend. It feels kind of like throwing it out into the void, but hopefully it'll help a little.
<3 The support is appreciated.
