During tonight's lesson there was demonstration and discussion of the anatomy of the wrist and how the 2 bones of the forearm, the radius and ulna, meet the first bones of the hand, called carpels

There was specific instruction regarding omote gyaku and kote gaeshi as well as nikkyo and ura gyaku and how they relate to the pisiform and scaphoid in particular

The above diagram shows the bones of the hand, and helps members understand the anatomy behind the controls and breaks.
