Uke - The Good, The Bad and The Crazy

First off - an Uke is a Japanese word meaning partner in Karate training. Have I got your interest? This episode has stories from Hanshi Malanoski and some feedback from followers of Hanshi Ray Batlle's Facebook page. I thank them both. We also tell a few stories of our own and maybe clear up some confusion for people who have just started training.After you listen, get in touch and tell us your stories of good and bad partnering experiences. As far as tagging episodes into these notes - nothing really fits. But I decided that consistency is a characteristic of a good uke. So, here's our episode on that:https://www.buzzsprout.com/477379/episodes/10255747And another tangent you might find interesting is our episode on the saying "Karate is for Everyone, but Everyone is not for Karate.
