Re: Training
Sometimes when I don't roll --if I don't feel off balance -- I've actually offended fellow students. I know I'm very grounded, something we learn in Aikido, but on the other hand it's easy to fall into the habit of not extending on one's attack and being off balance for the nage. What I meant by ukemi was attacking all together, not just rolling. There is a lot of debate over weather being a great uke or great nage is an either/or situation, but I don't want to start that debate!
