Preparing for our upcoming tournament on the 18th.

Not visible in this picture, but multiple sparring duels were going on at the time.  Some students were practicing back and forth kick training with Ms. Cheney.
Strange! Some of our yellow belts were just so excited about free sparring today, even though they knew they will be doing "kick exchange" at tournament.  Have at it!
Stephen Martin in the background has been a great help today.  While he and I were overseeing free sparring, Wanda Cheney has been training students on back and forth kicks training.
These two are great fighters!
We needed to pause from the organized but a bit fast pace activities to give additional instructions.  Yes, you counter an incoming round house with a quick back kick! The next move, not recorded, shows how that back kick counter goes to the head.  Yes, I can still do that! And Stephen Martin dodged it well too! I told him what was coming.
...and our class is growing!
We have 16 students attending today.  Our goal is to reach a regular 20 students attendance for the day class before year end. I'm confident we'll reach our goal.
A special thank to Ms. Lisa Whitfield who took the pictures today.  I'm happy to announce that Lisa will be joining our classes!!!
