Got class moved to the front of the floor tonight. Pretty cool.
Did a quick warmup then had them run suicide drills. Then paired off for some kick drills and reverse punch drills.
Then had 6 deadman drills where each volunteer had to collect a fight with each belt rank. Then paired up and had one side of the floor do 1:00 fights with random partners and had the other side calling fights (first to 3).
Good class and I think everyone got a good sweat on and had fun.

Did a 2 hour workout at the Dojo with Marty Knight. Had about 25 fighters come out and do a real training/workout. Great stuff.

Big fight class tonight. We started off with jumping jacks for warm up then some hop-scotch drills. Then did some 3-point lunges. Had them do “bring sally up” – I think they hated that. 🙂
Then broke into 2 rings and did some 3 point spread sparring. We had the students be corner judges and coaches. Good stuff and I feel like it kept everyone engaged tonight.
Halfway through sparring “thunderstruck” came on and we had a burpee party. Yay!

Then 3x more of 1:00 rounds. Then drilled creating angles and a basic footwork drill. Then 3x more 1:00 rounds. Finished up with 2x rounds of point sparring. 1 point for punch and 2 points for kicks, first to 5 wins.

Regular class fight class. We started off with some stretching for 10 minutes or so. Then running laps, where we ran fast for 45 seconds and then very slow for 1:00, we did that for 3x rounds, then walked 2 laps.
We fought 10-12 rounds of about 1:00 per round. Then did some “no-pad” point sparring. I had 3 fights, one was serious then two for good measure.
It was a good night for this class and had a blast. Especially with my oldest son joining class.
