Pictures of our dojo's women students.

We have a good many women that work out at our dojo. These are pictures of a few of them in action! We will be replacing these pictures as soon as we get more of the women taking care of their business.


Udekurumadaioshi In Randori.

Stacia Garrett applies a strong "arm turning downward" throw on uke Leon Stroud Sensei during randori. Her form is excellent as are the results. Her dad is a cop and she is just 14 years old!

Does this hurt?

Taryn Curtis is applying a sankajo waza during kata drills.

Shoteinage.

Laura Sanchez is applying a version of shoteinage in kata drills during the defensive tactics class at OC.

This stuff really works!

Rachel Lewis is throwing one of the larger classmates at her OC defensive tactics class.

There she goes!

This is the south side of a northbound Ashley White applying a hard throw on her uke, Jon Barrick sensei. This picture was taken at the OC Defensive Tactics Class. I think the nagewaza is Shoteinage.

Another Good Shoteinage In Randori!

Yvonne Carrasco applies a smooth, fast, and definitive shoteinage on her hard attacking uke. You can see that she has really obtained kuzushi and is stepping through the throw to be sure that her uke is captured and thrown! The women of our dojo all seem to really like applying this entering throw.

"Am I doing this correctly?!!!"

This is Brandi again working with McBride Sensei. She looks like she is enjoying herself.

WHOP!

In this picture, Brenda has thrown Barrick Sensei very hard and she is enjoying it very much! Of course Barrick Sensei has a totally different perspective on this throw.

Down and gone.

Lisa Ford executing a very dynamic Shoteinage!

Front entering throw versus a front kick.

This is Lisa Ford again (we had to put this picture in because you could not see her face in the previous picture and we did not want her mad at us) defending against a front snap kick with Iriminage omote.

The flying ponytail and shoteinage!

This is an older picture showing Megan McCrea dropping her uke using a front entering throw. We like the "flying hair" so we put this one in.

Traditional aikijujutsu.

Here is Megan again applying Ippondori to a very large uke.

Ikkajonage!

Yvon Carrasco applies Ikkajonage on the Chief of Police! When this pictures was taken, Ms. Carrasco was a detention deputy at the local shefiff's office. She later went on to become a federal airport security officer.

I got you!

Tayrn Curtis applies a "back drop throw" on Stroud Sensei during full speed rapid randori. This throw produced a big fall. Tayrn has excellent randori skills. She is only 14 years old!
