This morning was the first keiko with Nemoto Sensei.
It was really enjoyable, focusing on ken and jo suburi as well as awase practices, learnt a new one too which was nice.
Nemoto Sensei teaches a few things a little different to how Peter Sensei teaches which adds the possibility of a different perspective.
I am making more detailed notes as I am going along but wont bother to post it here-now.
So it is now 10pm, and have finished training at Shibu, come back eaten and ready for bed as I will be up at 4.30am ready for training at 5am. Can't wait.

This Blog originally tracked a three month period during which time I undertook training in Iwama under the supervision of Nemoto Sensei. We also trained at the Shibu Dojo, O'Sensei's Dojo in Iwama located in the Ibaraki Prefecture of Japan.
I have returned this time for a shorter three week stint in January 2011.
