9月27日の練習メモ
お疲れさまでした。
今日は
・hubudの復習
・左手が内側にあるときの崩し方
相手の肘の内側か肩に軽く指を添えると相手のバランスが崩れる。
・腰を少し折ってもとに戻る動きを相手に伝える。
・「採」の用法
両人とも指先で小枝をつまむ。離さないよう指先に力を入れておく。一方が一度軽く引き、二度目は強く引くと相手が動く。上下、前方でも使えるらしい。
余談ですが、今日大阪で
力のある人の相手をしました。ぶつかるようなことは無なかったのですが、やはり微妙なやり取りが出来なかったのは残念でした。

Practice Notes: September 27
Good work today.
We covered:
・A review of hubud.
・How to break the opponent's balance when your left hand is positioned on the inside.
Lightly placing your fingers on the inside of the opponent's elbow or on their shoulder causes them to lose their balance.
・Conveying the movement of slightly bending at the waist and returning to the original position.
・The application of "Sai" (Seizing/Plucking).
Both partners pinch a small twig with their fingertips, maintaining enough pressure to keep from dropping it. If one partner pulls lightly once and then pulls strongly a second time, the opponent moves. Apparently, this technique can also be applied vertically or in a forward direction.
As a side note, I practiced with a physically strong partner in Osaka today. While there was no actual clashing, it was a shame that we couldn't engage in the kind of subtle, nuanced interaction I had hoped for.
