2006 Workout #99: Demo and Sparring…

I got through 15 Sochin before class started on Thursday. After that, we proceeded into a long practice session for the demo. I helped with some footwork for the front kick board break demonstration, but aside from that it was demo business as usual. and I worked on what was going to happen during the full speed match, I think we have that worked out.

The second class was sparring, with an emphasis on the Sandan candidates. I had the good fortune to spar with Garls-san and Oedewaldt-san. I tried different tactics with each person, with special emphasis on flowing combinations together using my speed with Oedewaldt-san. I felt it was pretty successful last night… probably won’t be every time, but as always has set me on the right path. Now I just have to run down there and see what terrors await.

Tomorrow is the demonstration in Mapleton, hooray!
