My Budo plans for 2013

Jodo:
Learn Ranai! I did it a few times, but it still does not flow the way I would expect it.
Learn the basics, the movements of Omote and tanjo forms confidently to be able to start learning Chudan in the next Utrecht koryu seminar.
I have a lot to work on my seitei too and I want to keep advancing in koryu as  well.
I hope I can make it to more trainings at other dojos.

Work, get money, and get some good reading material :)

Kendo:
1st dan grading in the summer
Practicing on my own on strengthening the left side to pick up jodan in the not so distant future. I hope the different kamae could be good to my injuries.

Suburi, suburi, suburi...

Keep it simple
Practice footwork – Heels up, perfectly upright but with the feeling of leaning half a degree forward. Stay relaxed.
Commit – When attacking attack with sutemi. Do not think about maneuvering. Once started to cut there should be no way of stopping it. Commit to cut.

Nihongo:
Pick it up again and learn more Japanese. It is a must.

Kyudo:
Sadly that will be on hold I believe.
