Karate was fun today. Instructor introduced the term 'uke' to the class ("it is important for the uke to react to his partner's moves..."). I caught ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
deralte's eye from the other side of the room and we both grinned. Anime geeks; really!
A very good lesson in general though. The teacher really got the idea of smooth, dynamic movement across very well; just with a difference in stance, I found myself able to do a technique at literally twice the speed I was doing it at last week.
