Munetsuki

We worked with munetsuki with an ikkyo response. It lead into quite a few things: ikkyo ura, sumi otoshi, sankyo, kaiten nage, iriminage, ikkyo/nikkyo/sankyo combination, etc. The last thing we worked on was a direct nikkyo but nage slides one hand down, takes uke's thumb and reverses it under uke's arm into a standing pin. (One of T's favorites.)

I tired out a bit (after a month off it's not surprising!) and I felt some spasms in my lower back. I did some stretches that Sensei suggested and was able to finish the class.
