Aikido:  9:00 - 10:00 am.  Morning Class.  Finally back to a class!  And not too soon, as this is the only class I'll get before the testing.  We did pre-test, which covers material from the previous ranks, 7th and 6th kyu, and getting things cleaned up there.  We did lots of 7th and 6th kyu material review.  Most of it I got through ok, just have a few things to hopefully clean up.  Some of them will be called on for the test.  Then we finished reviewing some of the more challenging 5th kyu techniques, to include the sokumen iriminage variations, kaitenage ura, and shionage ura.

My back didn't bother me too much doing the breakfalls and getting pinned.
