Intro/Warm Up
We started off with a Light Warm up of Shadow Boxing. Probably a good way to start so he can see the skill level of the people he'll be teaching. We spent maybe 4 or 5 minutes doing that then we got into some light drills. The whole seminar we had just gloves, no shinguards. We started off nice and slow making contact with every kick in a light way. We did the same thing with just teeps and then just knees. At least I think that was the order we did it in. I can't remember. My brain is kinda mushy right now from sleep deprivation. Anywho...each time we spent a few minutes doing just one strike back and forth. Then we spent a few minutes doing all three.
He emphasized how important it is to go slow, so you can really feel if anything is off and not cover up bad technique with a show of speed/power. Also it's to get used to kicking elbows and other undesirable targets. Because it's
will happen sooner or later, so we might as well get used to it now.
Something I totally agree with and was happy to hear. He does this almost every day by the way.
