Kata & Weapons: We drilled most of our Kata’s up to Green Belt. Taigo 1, Taigo 2, Taigo 3, Pinan 1, Too San, Naihanchin, Giin and Empi. Then did Bo 1 and Bo 2 and then Tonfa 1 twice. Long class and totally greuling to get through but I really really needed it to see where I am one month out from rank test.
Got some work to do…
Weapons. We drilled Bo strikes then broke off into teams and drilled Tonfa 1 Kata.
Tonfa: Drilled Tonfa after doing 5x of each kick for warmup. Took turns on Tonfa 1, then did Tonfa 1 with no weapon in my left hand. Baked my noodle.
Weapons. We reviewed Bo 1, Bo 2 and Tonfa 1 today. After some rigorous runs with medball carries and regular running. We drilled as a unit then on our own. Good day. Good cardio today.
Weapons forms: We drilled Bo 1 Kata and slow, we held each stance for 3-5 seconds after each strike and sometimes in between strikes. Very painful and it wore me out in like 20 seconds. Then drilled Bo 1 some more and then drilled Tonfa for 30 or so minutes. Good drills.
