Footwork and Sweeps
Wednesday, July 8, 2009
Tonight’s karate training was on footwork. We partnered up and started off doing basic one for one shuffling back and forth with each other. Then we did a simple side blade and the other person counters back. Then it was one person doing a kick, other does a counter and the first person again does another kick. We could do a side blade, hook kick or roundhouse. Whatever works.
Then the next exercise was doing simple kicks to the back of the calve. Then the exercise progressed to doing a full leg sweep with a take down.
I did a private lesson prior to the 7pm class.
