Notes in class

[Eric7_27]

I don't take notes on paper. Everything I learn and do I blog for later reference etc. http://mytaekwondoblog.blogspot.com/

out of curiosity, were do you get pencil and paper in a Dojo? let alone the time to write...

Well...you could always bring the stuff with you! Just a thought.

In my kung fu class, time was given for utilizing your notebook. The notebook, like your uniform and anything else, was a mandatory piece of equipment. If you didn't bring it, you didn't train that day.

Everywhere else I would just keep a notebook with me and write stuff down after class.

That is a cool concept. I kind of like that idea.

When I had my own school, I made notebooks for all of my black belts. They could use them to take notes, write down class planners and ideas, and whatever else they thought necessary.

Taking notes periodically, or even making a training journal, are very good ideas, in my opinion.

I keep all my notes in a notebook attached to my 3 ring binder that holds all my manuals. The other day I was working with a student who said, " I have to write down this kata" - she was working on Bassai Dai. That was odd to me. I have never written down kata. I just practice them everynight so I don't forget them. Does anyone else write down the movements to all their kata?

I have written them down before, and I also have found them on the internet and printed them off to put in the curriculum sections of the notebook that I keep. I also have several books on the forms that I do, and some that I don't.

Now that you mention it, I just remembered that I need to update some of the forms curriculum that I have.

Any good places to look for said notes?

Darn, it, I'm on a different computer back home, at my folks, so I don't have my bookmarks available to me right now. However, when I get a chance, I'll get some to you!

I have also wrote out the movements to kata, and I add in notes to the areas where my sensei told me that needed more work.

Someday, I think it would be fun to take digital pictures of myself, and put my forms down in a binder, like book form, almost.

I keep a notebook and have encouraged my students to do the same. I also require a training journal when they reach red belt.

Now that's an interesting something. We don't do that but I may start.
