Nice defensive movement. When  you reached into the kimono, did you say, "crush the egg?" I wasn't sure I heard right. When I was young we'd throw loose change, by the way. And I knew someone who kept a pepper packet in a pocket, and could tear it and fling it in the eyes with one hand.

These are fun. I'll practice them with the class tomorrow.

Tons of great tips in this one, both techniques and concepts, and demonstrated very well.

At 2:00,, when showing how to free the hand, he said, "There's a term that we use, fill the..." I couldn't quite catch it.
