Teaching my regular classes at the Ross Farnsworth - East Valley YMCA.

Attendance was sparse again tonight. Apparently local schools are on fall break, so that explains it. In any case, small classes still make for extra, personalized attention for those who show up. In the youth class, we did a detailed runthrough of Heian Nidan, which was above the “pay grade” of the attendees, but they learned something, so why not? In the adult class we put the brown belt through his paces with kata and spent some time doing the “infinite yakusoku kumite” drill I explained last time.
