Defensive Tactics Club: 1:30 - 3:00 pm. Reviewed standup self-defense curriculum; wrist grabs and choke defenses from front, side, rear, and on the ground. Worked reversals from mount, doing variations from being choked, from postured up to strike, and a hair grab variation. Worked punch block defenses 1-4, and worked a bit on defense #4, getting the knee across the body and working to an elevator sweep; also worked from side control to getting back guard.

Taught TKD: 6:00 - 7:30 pm. Basics, with no extras really, as we had a fresh white belt. Forms, I worked with the white belt on Chon Ji, and then after he went through a few times at my count, I brought all the students up for forms. Did Chon Ji, Dan Gun, Bo Chung, Do San, Won Hyo. The white belt kept doing Chon Ji a lot, and got several run throughs, which was good. Broke off the green belts and below to start one-steps, and then did Yul Gok, broke off the blue belt, Toi Gye, broke off the brown belt, and the black belts did Poe Eun, and the sole survivor did Gae Baek. Then on to one-steps for the high ranks as well, and then some sparring. I was getting good feedback on the forms review, so I think I will keep it a part of my classes, as long as I have the extra half hour to work with the students.
