Keiko program 2016-11-12

• Kenko Taiso - Life Exercise
• jumping with partner. Up and down. Use partner for support, but don't make assumptions.
• Kaikya Ku Dai - legs and arms wide open, koshi low, feet pointed outwards, loop up and jump forward... and again, across the whole length of the dojo.
• Wakame Taiso
• opening and entering
  1. Open/cut space all around you, and enter new space forward. Make sure you have a right time. Try with someone "harassing" you for your attention - just move him/her firmly out of the way, while you step forward at the same / right time.
  2. Imagine that a bird or butterfly comes perch on your finger. Feel the emotion.
  3. Close your hands nicely around the soft creature. Cherish.
  4. Now someone else comes wanting to see it. Check his/her intentions inside of yourself. Then present it to him/her.
  5. Gradually move towards timing A: as you see something (flower, bird, rabbit, cat, etc.) and open to it, the other person wants to see / have it too.
  6. Now imagine you are picking a good nice fruit from the branch of a tree above your head. Same exercise.
  7. TSGS A-E
• TSGS alone all together 3 times*, with voice.
• Closing

*actually twice.
