Hajimimashite minna-san!
Today we had our extra practice for the upcoming small group competition. We started later than expected so we did not have that much time to practice. Anyways, our reliable senpais taught us the proper posture while hitting, the proper handling of shinai and the foot works. It is a bit confusing but after a few repetitions and also guidance I think we've got the hang of it. We did 100 Suburi (a Japanese for practice swing, it's the term used for repetitive cutting exercises in Japanese martial arts) it was really tiring but you would eventually forget how tiring it was when you finally see the fruit of your hard work. It is really fun learning new things and also having new friends.
Well minna-san, 'til next time. Jaa ne!
