For Kali Practitioners

[ShotokanKid]

What do you do to practice alone? What drills, etc. I have a heavy bag, I practice on that sometimes.

I don't get to train a lot with my instructor so I want to practice on my own.

What should I do?

Obviously due to the nature of kali you're best off with a partner. However since that isn't an option available to you often, I would recommend that you primarily focus on practicing your basics.

--Run through your 12 angles again and again (and again).

--Use your heavy bag as a target for your double stick work (the terms can differ from system to system but generally referred to as Heaven & Earth for example).

--See if your instructor can/will teach you a few shadow boxing forms.

Thanks for the advice.

I'm working with my heavy bag (and yes, we use Heaven, Standard, and Earth)

I'll ask about shadow boxing forms.

I use the 17 count by the way.

Thanks, bearich.
