Wayofaswede Posted March 10, 2019 Author Share Posted March 10, 2019 Another great club session today. Among other things we went through every move of Sanchin. Such a different and fascinating kata The path so far: 2 kyu Karate (Shito-ryu), 3 kyu Aikido (Aikikai), 5 kyu Judo, 9 kyu Bujinkan Budo TaijutsuNot a day without a kata Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushido_man96 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 I think I've got a whole book dedicated to Sanchin. It seems to be quite the kata. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayofaswede Posted March 19, 2019 Author Share Posted March 19, 2019 That's nice. It does seem like a kata that contains so much more than meets the eye.

Alan Armstrong Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 I'm looking to go to Sweden this year, perhaps you would like a visitor from this forum to visit your dojo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aurik Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 That's nice. It does seem like a kata that contains so much more than meets the eye.As a fairly new practitioner of Uechi-Ryu, I can definitely agree with that. At the start of every single class we run Sanchin 3 times, with our sensei checking our technique. One of the mantras I've heard whenever someone asks a question about a technique is, "go back to Sanchin".Oh, and congrats on the 4th kyu!

Let me know as the date draws closer and I will inform him about your visit The path so far: 2 kyu Karate (Shito-ryu), 3 kyu Aikido (Aikikai), 5 kyu Judo, 9 kyu Bujinkan Budo TaijutsuNot a day without a kata Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to hearing more about your future progress. Thank you very much for the congratsUnfortunately missed yesterdays session due to children being ill, but I'll focus on the next opportunity instead The path so far: 2 kyu Karate (Shito-ryu), 3 kyu Aikido (Aikikai), 5 kyu Judo, 9 kyu Bujinkan Budo TaijutsuNot a day without a kata Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayofaswede Posted June 2, 2019 Author Share Posted June 2, 2019 Little did I know that todays ”last club training for the semester” would be the last in the dojo I’ve been training in since I started training Karate! Our C.I. revealed after class that it was the last session for the club in that dojo, and that only the main club dojo (much farther away from my home) will be running when fall semester starts.Main reason is that many members have quit and none of the current trainers lives near this one. Sorry to hear, but grateful for all fond training memories during my first years as karateka.

sensei8 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Yeah, that's quite unfortunate to hear. Sorry, Wayofaswede!!What are your plans, if any, to continue on your MA journey??You've come quite a way, since you took your very first MA lesson; one that I am so proud of you across the board. You did what you were suppose to do, and with every issue, you upheld the maxim that says....7 times down, 8 times up!! I've enjoyed reading this thread, thoroughly, about your MA journey. Hopefully, this is just a temporary hiccup in the MA journey!!Hang in there!! Train hard, and train well, as often as possible!! **Proof is on the floor!!!
