Tuesday night Teaching – good class. The quote for the night was `Train like a tiger’ – I said that if we all have an animal in us, make it a tiger not a sheep or rabbit etc. One wee soul put her hand up and asked very worriedly how the tiger got inside her and was it going to get out….
Senior class - focus pad strikes, kakie uke applications, group circle drills defence and counterattack, strength work, finished with sparring. I had twelve in the group, gradually the numbers are increasing, very pleasing. Their quote was from Rory Miller about not delegating responsibility for your own safety.
Wednesday night -Gkr senior training – Saifa bunkai first and applications, not at all bad. Followed by sparring – I’m cetainly confusing people, lol. My style is so mixed up and weird now. Getting better at receiving and closing, very different from the stand back and jump around points stuff most of the others do. Just need to get the close up stuff really flowing and working. So a good medium intensity night.
