I really like the MJER waza done from Tatehiza. This is good since there are quite a few. But when I first learned Seitei the dreaded Tsuka Ate done from tatehiza was really painful, but I eventually got used to it, except on cold and rainy days. :)

Sometimes it hurts, sometimes it doesn't.
I'm sure when I get it down a little better (I've only
been studying Iaido for 4 mo.) it will hurt all the time ;)

The way I got used to it was to sit on a thick mator a cushion, say while watching t.v. (MA videos of course!) This cushions the strain on the ankle joint. It took a while but you get used to it, I find it quite comfortable now ( I am now obviously deformed after all these years) :laugh:
