Nearly 100 people die.


Japanese
自分に厳しく生きろ!
時間を無駄にしてはいけない。
自分は何時死ぬかわからぬぞ。
その時がいつ来てもいいように
一瞬一瞬を懸命に生きろ。

去年も今年も昨日も今日も
たくさんの人が一瞬で死んだぞ。
次は自分の番かもしれないぞ
だからやるべきことをやって懸命
に今を生きろ。

遅かれ早かれ人は死ぬ。
その時が来ても悔いが無いように
懸命に生きろ。もしかしたらその
後に天国が有るかもしれないぞ。

Review of yesterday.
Kata – Use of Tanden (Stomach power), Sharpness.
Kumite – KoGo, Offensive technique.
Do not open elbow.

Japanese
昨日の組手は大負けでした。
脇が開いてしまう。 早く動いていると思っていても、
動きが大きすぎて相手に読まれてしまう。
意識が上の方に行きすぎていた。等、良いとこ無しです。
これを忘れず、またこつこつやるしかないです。
今は、膝が痛い、足首が痛い、腕がはれてる、口の中が切れてる、
etc. なので休みます。

Chart of men's kumite - 2005 AAKF Western Regional
It was only seven people were in for Men’s Kumite Match.
I was selected as #7 positions by draw. I lost first much but
because of my starting point, I am now match for 3rd place.
I lost this one too. However for Kumite & Fukugo are always
selecting two 3rd place (actually 4th place).

ダッシュの練習が効いている。体がスムーズに動くし力も入る。
しかし、脇が空き気味になってしまうので気をつける。
と言う事は、100%ダッシュの時の動きを組手に

***基本***視点を変えて段階的にチェック

突き技: 
1、腰の回転(シャープに!)
2、ためを使って(丹田から)技を出す
{犬が唸って今にも飛びかかりそうな感覚}
3、技の最後にかけてのスナップ
4、最後に体を固めてすべてのエネルギーがHitポイントから伝わるように(極め)
5、残心(連続技でたまたま次の技が必要無かったというような感覚)
6、必要なら次の攻撃

蹴り技:
1、足の抱え上げ(振り子運動も考慮)
2、力の集約(足を抱え上げると力が丹田に集約する)
3、スナップ(集約したパワーを攻撃方向に解放つ)
4、足の引き戻し(この時また力が丹田に集約)
5、足を下ろすと同時に次の攻撃も完了
(足を下ろすのは極めのため(連続蹴りは別):一撃必殺)

***組手***
先、仕掛技、殺し技、並足(スワィープ)、コンビネーション
