USSD Karate Training Class Blog
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
The karate training class this evening was concentrated on basic stances, balance, coordination and targeting. Stuff you wouldn’t use on the street but it was just a good overall workout. Starting in the horse stance, we did front ball kicks, instep, front thrust, side blade, back kick, roundhouse and a hook kick. Each set progressed with an additional kick until it consisted of seven kicks on both right and left side. I do much better while on the left leg and kicking with the right. Balance is a bit off while on the right leg. Then we did this exercise while with a partner. And we did our top 20 kempos with takedowns. I did a 1/2 hour private prior to the class.
