Sorry to be so late getting this out. Some tense and confusing times at work with layoffs starting as my company downsizes due to some jobs nearing completion.
This week was about applying what both Sifu Playters had to say about my Kempo 1 and improve my form.
I was consentrating so hard on achieving really good stances that my arms were being neglected. As in I wasn't getting very good snap in my wrists as I completed my punches and blocks. So then I started working on that and suddenly my stances started to not be so good. It took alot of reps and good work to get both to be better at the same time. Funny how that goes. I'm really pleased with my improvement( lots to go I'm sure, so looking forward to the forms workshop). And I earned my white stripe yay.
I definately like both negative and positive comments about how I am doing. Both help me learn. I find there are times where I'll be doing what is being taught in class and thinking I'm doing ok, but not truly sure. A comment either way helps me to either fix what is wrong or know that yes I am doing the technique right and to continue doing so.
I can't say enough about how amazing our Sifu core is. The dedication and knowledge that is available to every student truly makes learning Kung Fu fun and enjoyable. When I hear from other guys that I work with what their martial arts schools are like( and some are great I'm sure). I am thankful to be part of what I feel is a true extended family.
