tallgeese: I didn't learn much about koga the other day. What I did see is the DT guys there kind of get sqeemish about touching someone up that much without having them in cuffs to begin with. I'll have to see if they show up again, and do some observing.

12/30/2010

TKD class: 6:00 - 7:00. Sparring class. Since there were only 4 of us, 3 being black belts, we went straight into doing some footwork/counter drills against front leg side kicks:

Closed stance: side step at 45 degree angle with back leg while using a down block to scoop the leg out of the way to the opponent's back side, and then set up a back leg round kick to the head, or a front leg round kick to the body.

Open stance: side step at a 45 degree angle with the back leg to the opponent's front side while using a down block to scoop the leg out of the way, then set up counter of choice, being side kick, round kick, front kick, axe kick, crescent, etc. Depending on rank, they got to choose a bit.

Round robins: spent the next 20 to 25 minutes of class doing round robin matches. Two started in the ring, and two outside, spar 1 minute, then we rotated so that whoever started on the far side in the ring then moved to the rear side, and a new one rotated in. So, we were each in for 2 one minute rounds before rotating completely out for a break of 2 minutes. Good workout, and I felt winded afterwards, but I think I fought pretty well, and tried to pace myself.
