In attendance: Bob Shin (instructing), Joe C., Keith H. and Tom M. Prospective students: David D. and Adam B.
I spent most of the class with the new prospects, neglecting everyone else shamefully.
Joe, Keith and Tom immediately began taking turns feeding and receiving 3/9 tapping. The feeder needs to remember to pay attention to the left hand techniques. They are as important as the right hand attacks, if not more so. The receiver needs to remember to step the left foot back when clearing 7.
The second half of class was spent on the 5 count palusot drill. They began with using just the left hand. This is to emphasize the importance of the passes before “complicating” the drill with the right hand.
The last part of class was spent sparring with padded sticks. 1-on-1 and 3-on-2 (letting the prospects play too).
