December 6, 2009 - Class Supplement

Great class everyone! I think everyone involved is making major steps and improving drastically. Jay's overall martial ability continues to improve, while Mark polishes his ground game and foot work. Joe seems to be a bit more of a natural puncher, but that doesn't stop him from striving for better abilities. Good job so far!

We are starting to round a couple of corners. Mark is in the sparing phase of his Western Martial Arts journey, Joe is getting ready to start sparing, and Jay finally represents a fighter when it comes to his skills. Won't be long now before we get gloves on everyone and let more intense drilling start!

One key thing that I think we all need to do is Jump Rope (notice I included myself in that). Jump rope makes you lighter on your feet and it's a great work out. I think jumping rope will help everyone with their footwork and movement abilities. Here are some videos to get you started:

Outside of that, I think everyone needs to be drilling on the heavy bag and working being light on their feet.

I recently recieved an article from Jay. As Jay noticed, it is more geared to law enforcement, but I think everyone can better understand a killer by this article. Enjoy!
