I'm in Stockholm, not in Beijing. Life is good!
Today's major focus was on applied strike combinations. Skill in applying this art comes only with a solid understanding of the underlying theory behind your technique. We looked systematically at the set-up of various Lion system sweep strikes in both offensive and defensive situations. Manipulation of the opponent's reaction and advantageous body positioning were among the key points we worked to improve. Foundational saber techniques were drilled to improve strength and coordination, and we finished the day training the Bending kick of Monkey system.
One down, four to go...
