Video from Monday (Shaun Hoddy Sensei)

I managed to cobble together what I could from Monday’s session. I’m not very good with video editing, and its seems more than a little glitchy. I couldn’t get it to overlay my music like normal, so I let Youtube choose a track automatically, and I think it did rather well…… Enjoy
