Techniques for the test

Roland' quote: Sankajo is thumb forward !
He said it having his thumb up with a big smile, cracked me up big time... I could not help nor stop laughing... It would be hard to forget it now :)

Back breakfalls... still need to work on.

Bruises...have been working almost only with David for the same techniques for weeks, getting bruises on my right arm all the way, people look at me with disgusted look. Yet, I dont really care...except for when I have to strike or block on the same spot...I don't care how it looks, but it still hurts : >

We, David and I, still dont get how Kokyuho is supposed to work, yet we learned the movement, and decided we are doing OK for now, at least I suggested to consider it that way.

Speaking of wearing out from the frustration of the test, I think its getting better now. Doesnt mean I am so confident of doing everything in the right way, yet I think we have been working on fairly enough to learn the movement and are almost ready to take the tests next Thursday. I enjoy training with David very much, and glad to have a buddy to do the same test at the same time.
