A nice evening of Tai~Sabaki ~ (whole body movement) 体捌き & Taihen~jutsu (adapting & positioning) at Brighton Dojo.   We finished the class with Kukishinden Ryu jō ~Jutsu; which is the art of using the 4ft wooden staff.

You should learn to strike when off balance or in awkward positions, even if falling or rolling, as we can’t always be in perfect alignment or have perfect footwork.
