Training in the time of Corona
I asked Ron to watch me while I was preparing for our Zoom class today. He looked perplexed until I told him that I was doing shomen uchi kaiten nage. I kept getting my hands mixed up. Technique is harder for me with Fred, the imaginary uke than with a live uke. Finally, I was able to be consistent on both sides and we will practice it tonight in class. I like how nage's hands relate to each other. Kaiten nage means wagon wheel. I imagine a spoke in a wheel as nage leads uke’s arm and head into a front fall or forward roll.
