Group 1: Review of basic kata, Matsumura no Seisan, Shinsei no
Seisan, and other kata.
Group 2: Working detail on
the formal pairs exercise (Yakasuku
Gumite). Problems in speed and
fluidity stemming from a lack of relaxation – the tea towel flick effect.
Kinesiological exercises 1-2 (Undougaku
Waza Sho and Ni)
The two undougaku waza are now
complete. It must be remembered that
these exercises are taught in one simple mode.
The exercises may be performed in alternative ways, starting at
different positions, reversed, both hands in unison, following or contrary motion
and large circles or small circles. The
number of ways these exercises can be executed is extensive and limited only by
the practitioners imagination. It is for members to reflect upon the import of
these exercises and what lessons, principles and concepts are contained within
them. Look for ways of creating coordination challenges by changing the roles of each hand.
Undougaku waza sho:
Brief description for right hand (left hand works in contrary motion).
1. Working around a sphere anti-clockwise (seen from above) with
vertical anti nodes, the primary being at the bottom.
a. Clockwise (on vertical plane).
b. Forward rolling (on vertical plane).
c. Anti-clockwise (on vertical plane).
d. Backward rolling (on vertical plane. Add one quarter revolution).
2. Working around a sphere clockwise with longitudinal antinodes, the
primary being at the front.
a. Clockwise (as seen from above), on horizontal plane.
b. Forward rolling (on vertical plane).
c. Anti-clockwise (as seen from above), on horizontal plane.
d. Backward rolling (on vertical plane. Add one quarter revolution).
3. Working around a sphere clockwise (as seen from the right) with
lateral anti nodes, the primary being on the right.
a. Clockwise (on vertical plane. Add one quarter revolution).
b. Clockwise (as seen from above), on horizontal plane.
c. Anti-clockwise (on vertical plane)
d. Anti-clockwise (as seen from above), on horizontal plane.
Thereafter repeating the twelve step sequence as described or going
straight into undougaku waza ni.
Undougaku waza ni:
Brief description for right hand (left hand work in contrary motion).
1. Flowing clockwise: semi circle on left of front face of cube.

3. Semi-circle on bottom of left side of cube.
4. Semi-circle on right side of rear of cube.
