I wasn't 100% sure I was allowed to do sparring so I had someone call my doc. & the bottom line is that I CAN!!! So I can't wait to order my gear through my KSW school!!!!
Monday's (1/25/10) class was awesome!!! we started by stretching then moving to doing a kicking excrise in which my master added a new kick after we all had done the 1st one 7xs total of 5 kicks put together & after we finished lets say the first one then adding the new on then we would have to do the 1st then the new 7x etc intill we were doing all 5 of them in 7 rips!!!!
after that we started doing continuous cartwheels down then mat but the way I saw everyone in front of me I though it was a special kind of a karate cartwheel so when I got up to the front of the line I asked my master if it was a special cart wheel or just a regular one. He replied a regular one. So I started doing the continuous cartwheels down the mat. Then the second time when I did it I didn't know but the master was watching me & when I was finished he was like " good job Lu"! & he high fived me! Then when I returned to the back of the line once again. Hearing the master's instructions this time to only notice that we are now doing one handed cartwheels down the mat! I was thinking" I don't know if I could do this." But I was watching everyone in front of me & I was trying to figure out fast how to do it. Although I do know how to do a cartwheel pickup I tricked my self thinking I was going to do a cartwheel pick up but in mid air before I put my hand down on the mat I picked up the other one. I guess that was ok to do that in order to be able to do a one handed cartwheel.? I guess I would practice just a one handed cartwheel without doing that! The Master separated the class my ranks & he teach us the white belts how to do a front roll expect that u don't roll on your head but on your back. & once again because of my little time in gymtastics I was able to get it the first time!!! but when I did it on the other side of the mat it kinda throw me off but overall I got how to do it. The Master then showed us how do to it from a stand up position & again I got it the first time! But I was kinda dizzy from all the cartwheels & front rolls. we also learned some Techniques!

Hi Young Warrior,
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're enjoying my blog. Its an honour to help people towards their black belt.
Todays post may help you start your own Kuk Sool Won notebook until such time you can afford the official Text Books. Let me know what you think.
In answer to your question:
I'm not exactly sure what you are asking, but I get the impression that your Master Instructor is saying you are welcome to stay behind after class to get some extra practice in if you do not have other prior engagements to get to. E.g if you dont have to go home straight away stay at the dojang and keep practicing. These can be ideal times to get 1 on 1 tuition with the master if he is offering it.
I don't think he is saying that if your partner goes home you have to go home too. That doesn't make much sense.
ps: once you get your official text book, take it along to a tournament/seminar near you and the Grandmaster will sign it for you!
