Class covered:
~Dog Dips Down Qigong/Stretch
~Inside Pushing Strike Stationary Drilling Method
~Inside Pushing Strike One-Step Drilling Method
~Inside Pushing Strike Two-Step Drilling Method
~Inside Pushing Strike + Double Pushing Strike Application Training
Remember the stepping for the Two Step Method:
Strikes come front the front of the turn, or, the side which stepped. You move across the circle with the inside foot, and around the circle with the outside foot. Same goes with the box in this drilling method. Do a stationary strike at the beginning and between changing directions to drill the opposite side. The turns will be 1/4 then 3/4 turn, always turning so you are moving forward. You never turn backward or lead with the back. Practice this only with the Inside Pushing Strike for the time being.

Remember, practice slow, practice relaxed, and think about all the notes we discuss in class each time you throw a technique. Do not rush your training!
