Dean,

Take some free time that you have, but work on bokken cuts while watching TV instead of sitting (just an example).

I'll often do cuts while waiting for dinner, or at night before bed. Sometimes, I'll sneak in 20 or 30 cuts while talking with my wife after work (she doesn't mind).

I like to go through all the cuts that I know by doing 10 of each. I'll do the same thing with the jo, but that I'll do left and right handed.

Just start looking for times when you can practice for a short while. If your sensei corrected you on something, se if you can feel what he or she is talking about.

Regards,
