Hakama smarter than me

[mrind001]

I ordered my keiko-gi & hakama from ebogu (it's one of my toy stores) and it was one of those nice bundle deals to start off with. I'm gonna tell you what, that I need a better vocabulary hakama kicked my ass in tying it right. gonna take some practice, and it is a little longer than I though it would be. Now, how many of you all got your butts kicked by your hakama the first time?

I'm not going to say that my first hakama gave me too much grief, but my sensei was very thorough in demonstrating the proper way to put the hakama on, and also how to fold it up and tie it once you take it off... which I will also do come this Saturday - just make sure you're at the school at least 10 minutes before 1...
