Day 13

We had the yelling and hitting instructor today, which always makes for a great class. At one point we were practicing kote-men across the floor when the instructor stepped in my path and watched my progress. I continued with my practice, holding my line and continued towards him, projecting my kiai the best I could. He stood there as I approached, stepped aside when I was within striking distance and said "good good" with a pat on the back as I continued by. I took that as a win.

One thing I seem to be having a hard time with is my right foot. I need to work on keeping it flat as I move it forward. During footwork, the bottom of my right foot is visible from the front. I concentrated on it, but still need some work.
