We held our annual Tactical Gift Exchange on December 21. The turnout was great and included Mike Q. who made a special trip up to participate. As usual there was both triumph and heartbreak. Happy Holidays!

In attendance: Joe, David, Tyus, Devlin, Mosi, Brian, Asim, Andrew, Ryan, Will, Bob, Tavon, Julie, Kashif, Nancy, Jon, and Guro Joe Maraña. visiting from the west coast!

We warmed up with transition drills, then decided to do something different in honor of Guro Joe. We split into two groups (sharks vs minnows) and ran a series of mass attack drills. Eventually we worked our way until we had a group of 12 protecting a “principal” against 3 attackers — trying a variety of different strategies. Fun stuff!

In attendance: Joe C., David, Tyus, Hickory, Brian, Asim, Ryan, Frank, Bob, Kashif, Jon, Nancy, and prospective students Andrew and Julie.

The more advanced students continued to work through transition drill 2 while the others began installing transition drill 1. As the students move from one transition drill to the other, different skills and techniques are being installed, for example the linear movements of the first contrast with the circular movements of the second drill.
