Kuk Sool Won Practice Schedule

[KSWDanMan]

we do the same for sparring. Sparring classes are usually 2 nights of the week, and we also don't practice the point method, until tournament time gets closer. We'll go 1-1.5 minute rounds, break and switch partners. Not so often do we do multiple opponents, but we probably should do more of that .

We don't do the multiple attackers all that often, but when we do it really is fun. It's also a way to give the better "sparrers" a challenge. Another benefit that isn't so obvious is that the multiple attackers learn better how to work with somebody else in a confrontation.

 

We also swich partners frequently, though some nights there's only 4 or 5 among which to switch!

 

Unfortunately, because of my work/family schedule, I don't get to go to sparring all that much, but I really think it is beneficial.

How much emphasis (or explanation) do you guys give / get on the internal energy aspect of meditation?

[KSWDanMan]

Good question Tanjin, I guess when we talk about mediation, we don't really hit on the energy aspect, or at least I don't(probably should). We normally just talk about clearing your mind and foucs on the task you are about to start. I guess you could say we are using our internal energy to prepare our minds. I'll have to think about this one...
