Why do so many people show up on Tuesays, especially when I can't anymore after next week, at least until January. I managed to practice with all the Sensei today, after Godan Sensei and Junior Sensei returned today. There was plenty of advice, and I felt that my men was kind of crooked, and my tenugui was really terrible all of the time. Sensei says I was cutting too high, not far down enough. Godan Sensei complimented me on mixing things up, and my kote and kote-men waza in particular, but asks me to try more men-waza, such as harai-men and suriage-men. I miss my old debana-men. Finally, Regular Sensei tells me just that my kote was much better today, but should try to be much straighter.

Instead of kihon we had lots of small waza, taiatari-hiki-waza, and counter-waza (degote, suriage-men, kote-nuki-men), and then some nice kakarigeiko.
