Yoo Sin

Stretch. Breaking things up a bit allowed me some rest and recovery to hit some of the little things. I really slowed down and paced out Yoo Sin, and I felt good with that pacing. I may keep working at that for the testing.

12/13/2012

Technical session today for Yoo Sin. I broke the form into segments and worked on pacing, timing, and breathing.

Segment 1 (moves 1-19) x5

Segment 2 (moves 20-40) x5

Segment 3 (moves 41-55) x5

Segment 4 (moves 56-73) x5

Yoo Sin x1. The floor space was needing to be used by the tumbling team, so I only got one run through. I did slow the form down and pace it out a bit, but I didn't sync my breathing up as well as I had during the segments, but that should come with time.

Stretch

Gen. Choi's Encyclopedia shows Yoo Sin having 68 moves. There are some subtle spots in the form that I counted as separate moves, mainly being the spots after the high X-blocks where the wrist grabs are, and then we have two additional low side kicks in the form, one before each of the U-shaped punches.
