3/29/2013

Taught TKD: 6-7 pm. Small class of mostly kids, with a few teens thrown in. Got through most things, and got some sparring in.

4/2/2013

TKD class: 6-7 pm. Yoo Sin, and white and orange belt one-steps review. Then did kicking drills on the clapper/target pads.

FL front kicks, 10 each.

BL front kicks, 10 each.

FL round kicks, 10 each.

BL round kicks, 10 each.

FL switch foot round kicks, 10 each.

FL outside axe kick, 10 each.

BL outside axe kick, 10 each.

FL crossover axe kick, 10 each. I managed to pull both my hamstrings doing the axe kicks, so that was a great note to end the class on. But a few days of some rest and muscle rub helped them out a lot.

4/5/2013

Wrestling with Kendall: worked take-downs, stand-ups, and switches. Then we worked on round kicks together.

4/7/2013

Solo work, did 20 minutes of work on the Yoo Sin segment of inside crescent kick to hand/consecutive side kick, on both sides. If I keep that up, I might get good at it finally.

Taught TKD: Class was a bit slower paced, as the students that got promoted were learning knew forms.
