Good morning!! I wasn’t feeling well on Thursday and immediately knocked put after camp yesterday haha
Camp was very fun!! I loved working with other instructors in training from various dojangs, and I made some nee friends that I’ll hopefully see next year!
One big takeaway was learning from the small group class that repetition is not the same as monotony. While it is important to do a poomsae, or self defense, or even a kick, over and over again with students, it doesn’t have to be the exact same all the time. For example, you can teach a poomsae using animals! You ask students for their favorite animal, maybe they’ll say a bunny, and then do the poomsae with the characteristic of a bunny, like hopping after every step.
I’m excited to go back next year!
