In attendance: Bob Shin (instructing), Adam B., Paul B., Joe C., Warren D. Keith H., Derek L., and Tom M.The first half of class was spent reviewing 3/9 tapping and transition drill 1, rotating partners.In the second part of the class, we switched to foam trainers and increased the intensity of the attacks. Each exchange lasted only for a few seconds, then we would rotate to a new partner. Mostly this exercise was just meant to remind us how hard it is to stop a committed knife attack, and to show that even a little bit of training can make a big difference.The class ended with free flow at varying levels of intensity. There is always a tendency to drift into higher intensity exchanges (not a bad thing), but it is always important to balance that with training in flow, so that our sensitivity can increase as well.
