...is (among many things) the new bane of my Aiki-existence. Naturally, this one is going to be on the Sankyu test.

Actually, it's not that bad...after at least a few dozen reps, I *finally* started stepping to the side of uke (and not behind) like I'm supposed to. :-P Gak! Other areas I need to work on include:
- thrusting my arms up and back more as a means of distracting uke
- once I've got uke's arm down, to raise my body up instead of pushing down on his arm on the way up

And this is just for Omote...I haven't even had a chance to work on Ura yet. *sigh*
