Kregg consented to be my uke at the last minute. |
| kotagai.jpg |
Oh, I suck at kotegaeshi. Kregg is putting up with it. |
| yonk.jpg |
I think this started out as a sankyo, but now it looks like a yonkyo. |
| koteyuk2.jpg |
There's that kotegaeshi again. Terrible. Sensei is not happy,
either. |
| knife.jpg |
Posture? What posture? |
| knife1.jpg |
Chasing the knife |
| knife2.jpg |
Attempting to dissuade Kregg from cutting me again. |
| knife3.jpg |
Missing a gokyo. |
| knifeback.jpg |
The old "knife in the back" and boy my shoulders are crooked. |
| jiyu1.jpg |
The nidans attack! |
| jiyu2.jpg |
When nidans attack, part 2. |
| jiyu4.jpg |
That had been a very effective throw and that's when I was
"wondering at the people flying at my elbows." |
| jiyu5.jpg |
Always best to throw uke at the exam board. Keeps them awake. ;)
|

I seem to be drifting my feet a bit, here.
Think this is 12 from the 2nd ken gi.
|
| bookin.jpg |
"I am SO out of here." |
| push.jpg |
And you wondered why I ran away the first time. Ugh. |
| randrifun.jpg |
These people are having too much fun chasing me around!
I am getting into a bad spot as I try to stay
out of trouble -- figures!
|
| randori.jpg |
The sankyo breakaway. A merry chase.

Mle forgets that this isn't WWWF wresting... |
| kokyudosa.jpg |
A very classical kokyudosa picture.
Nage is a little too attached, but otherwise OK.

Travis hands me my new belt.

My sweet spousal unit. |
