Tai chi sword form

Before class I practiced my tai chi sword form. I think I need to work on the movements. It will be awhile before I want to work with Jim on it, till I know it is good.

I helped two people in class today. One had a question on 3 pinion, and another on some dragon kempos.

Anyway, class today, one of the blackbelts lead us out. Another one did some strikes, another one did some stretching, then I did a combination of the three. I had the jog in place while I called out some strikes.

Then we went down the line, and worked on what the person asked. A yellow belt on 3 combination. So we got in line and did 3 combination with one person doing three combination and then the rest of the people in a line. Then when the person who was "defending" himself, had did 3 combination on everyone in the line we switched it to the next person, and th next person till we were done.

Then we worked on 3 pinion. So we all did the form. Then we blackbelts broke off into another, group and worked on 22 and 23 combination.

I was asked to work with the brown belts on 3 pinion. I had them do it, then I asked them to lay on their back. The point was that, too not lock into doing something the same way, all the time. In a real life situation, your going to have think on your feet and that was what I wanted to make them do. Well, anyway, then I had the person put a wavemaster top between his legs, and put down some dots. The dots really made him think.

Then I told to go work with the other blackbelts. Well, they were working on a higher combination, so I worked 22 and 23 combination on bags. Then we lined back up and did some strikes.
