Re: now let me see...

I'm not in my first week of throwing people so I see this uke as helpful actually. It sounds like they are just narrowing my window of opportunity so that my kazushi and timing must be "perfect". It's not so bad that they will go flying backwards if I let them go
It's just that I want to improve my technique with ki and not by fighting. I'm just not sure what happens to the ki when they counter. Maybe I'm trying to let it control my actions too much instead of controlling it. I don't know.
