grrr...
Will someone please tell my why Juno feels the need to send me an email about the email they blocked? really people!

Ok, so....

I feel a bit better, that you all. And to answer some questions: Budo Taijutsu ( I misspelled it) is a Japanese martial arts form that focuses on Self defence, it focuses on the following:
Buki To Taijutsu: using training tools and wepons
Junan Taiso: Streching and physical conditioning
Ukemi:Injury prevention such as rolls and break falls
Jutaijutsu:Joint locks and escapes
Dakentaijutsu: striking and kicking
Koshijutsu: attacks of the soft tissue and pressure points
Tai Sabaki: Walking techniques
San shin no kana: 3 level transmission
Kihon Happo: 8 methods waza
It stresses natural movement and creativity of expression. Budo Taijutsu incorportates Jujutsu, ninjutsu, kenjutsu and a few others. It's also a lot of fun.
I spend most of my time laughing at myself, since I know what I should be doing, but for some reason I can do it. Front rolls are my foe! I can't practice them anywhere really, so I'm not improveing them. Today we did rolls, Break falls from a sitting position, and some basic kenjutsu (sword work)which was sooooo FUN! I actually think I'm good at what we did. It was just a simple foward strike and step, then you do that faceing an unarmed partner and they have to dodge. We did it in slow-mo. But it was educational and made me feel really confident. Ok, now I'm rambiling.
Thank you all for your questions and "feel better"s my fever's gone down a bit, so it's all good. And for today: Abnormal Psych (go crazy psych majors!) and Geology and Socity lab (we're looking at rocks.)
