Monday nights teens and adults class looking at some principles from Pinan shodan kata including different striking, limb control, take downs and escaping. This was one of the drills done towards the end of the lesson with many layers to it. We also drilled some redundancies if things don't go to plan. This was a semi compliant partner drill so the students could focus on the techniques but also adapt to the opponents responses should they need to.
A great effort by everyone ๐Ÿฅ‹๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ‘Š
