doubletake Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 I just started teaching at a school that my sensei sold to me. The business is running fine and all that but I was wondering if anyone had some ideas on training exercises that I could do in my class. I kinda wanna add some new things into the mix to keep everyone interested. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orion82698 Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Well, are you going to push and train hard? Or just some brief...short to the point stretching and warm-ups?

Shorinryu Sensei Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 My suggestion is not to make any drastic changes in the routine for a while. The students are used to doing things in a certain way and order (normally) and as a new owner/instructor, I wouldn't rock the boat until they get used to you.Eveybody has their own teaching style, and yours will be different than your sensei's. For the first few months at least, I would just keep things as they have been. After a while, when the students are used to you, then make some changes and add new things if you want to.

If I ever teach, I would want someone to quit (not that I want people to quit) because it's too hard, not because they're not advancing in belts!
