Last Wednesday I took a pretty good fall… bruised my side… & got my wrist bruised when I was being pinned… wasn’t a good night… so I skipped the Friday class. Today was ok, I did more Ukemi practice… did little better today.
Month: August 2007
Today we had a good practice session at the Sumo dojo again. I’m definately improving on my unkemi. Well… atleast when I do ukemi by myself. But, when someone was throwing me, I’m having a hard time. Sensei Matsumoto-san showed me a trick today… I wasn’t taking a step… I take a wide step, then roll… I was just trying to roll… and that wasn’t working out for me.
I feel like I have improved drastically! I’m sorry I will miss Monday & possible Wednesday’s class due to work.
We had a good session tonight. I’m really sore, but I really need to work on my Ukemi. If I practice my ukemi by myself, I’m fine. However, someone is throwing me, then I mess it all up for some reason. Geez… it’s a bit embarrasing. I don’t know why. I really need to visit an Onsen… think I’ll try to fit that in tomorrow…
