To catch up, have been consistently working w/the kids. Having to drag QQ through 30 minutes, but she can hate me later. :)
Week before last did a street clothes Kajukenbo class. Practiced forms w/ debris (striking pads, medicine ball and kicking shields.) Talked about limits of clothing on fancy (high kicks) techniques and the limits of grappling on cement vs. the mat. Also, talked about improvised weapons (keys, belts and ice scrapers.) Reviewed awareness and avoidance. Good times.
Today, I suited up w/as much padding as we had and did street attacks w/a stick and empty hand while the students defended. (Street attack being wild swings, grab and punch and football kicks)Looked something like this starting at 0:22. Every student had something they consistently did. The police office who trains w/us found the takedowns. The blue belt groin kicked. The yellow belt ducked and shot in. The other black belt did a lot of armbar takedowns like this. (Not happy w/that example, but it's the best that I could find.) It was silly, willy fun-fun.
