You guys do unbendable arm? That's awesome. I always loved how surprised the newbies would be when they realized they could do it as well as the black belts. Ki and physics, a winning combination.
That shot of the Yudansha at the end of suwari-waza kokyu-ho is lovely. You really captured his expansiveness.
I love the ki testing. Last night we did an hour of it at the advanced class. A lot of us feinting at our partner then laughing as we all totally flinched, even the fifth, sixth or more times.
Yudansha is the black belt? The terms are all coming so slowly since I have to pick them up in context (and with funny accents). (For that matter what is kokyu-ho?)
