	<title><![CDATA[5th February, 2005 - Jo Bokken 18 Kata]]></title>
	<body><![CDATA[Here's something new I've never done before.  At class today, we practiced the Jo/Bokken 18 step kata.  It was interesting to use a jo against a bokken for a change.

Hopefully, on the web somewhere is a description of the 18 movements. I don't believe I can properly describe it here.  Anyway, what was most interesting is the way strikes and counterstrikes are made based on the parry and deflection of the oponent's weapon.

I would definitely like to practice this again.

Cheers.
