Martial Arts Drilling
I'm trying to be dilligent about my drilling. I made a chart so that I can record the techniques that I practice each day. And today, I took a look at 58 Korean terms. I know 5 of them, but I figure if I learn 5 each day, I should know them all by October. I realized as I was learning punching and blocking, that the test will be a practical application of the techniques--taking the offensive and defending, not just performing 10 techniques in order. I am working on blocking and punching together, not block then punch like I first learned. I need to step out of the way of the attack--hard when my first inclination is to step INTO the attack. I need to work work work on hoi jeons--turn my upper body fully, extend the bow's wrist, keep it high and come around like a tornado. Good thing I have several months to get it together. Always, always something to tweak and refine.
