Tonight I got thrust into teaching the first class, and I executed a class that I’ve wanted to do for a long time: I focused on fudo-dachi, a stance predominantly used in the Sochin kata. We simply did a whole boatload of basics in fudo-dachi after working in some stances more familiar for the lower ranks. I was pleased to see that there were several yellow belts in a very good fudo-dachi by the end of the night!
The second class consisted of more of the same distance and footwork drills that we have been working on, capped off with some light slow sparring to end the night. Trent-san and I mixed it up a little tonight and it felt good, hopefully there will be more where that came from.
Got my perfect pushups in, two sets before class and my wide ones in between classes!
