Warm-up
Roll exercise (focusing on certain techniques each time)
- Bottom fulcrum
- Top fulcrum
- Isolate wrist motion

Oroshi
- Play as group and individually
- Notes from individual section:
-- Maintain sound quality & even strikes throughout entire oroshi
-- Maintain strong kata (mainly, don't lean over when speeding up during the roll)
-- If slowing down, challenge yourself to practice ending as slowly as you start
-- If the "feel" of the oroshi (pacing, etc.) is getting comfortable, start focusing back to basic strike technique

Oroshi Sequence
Play Oroshi sequence from Class 04
- For DoRo oroshi part, make sure LH accent is stronger than the RH accent so both hits can be heard
- Practice counting hits aloud to make sure we're at the same spot in the music
