Friday the 13th

Good class tonight with some double stick work. And cinawales as well. A mentee session afterwards with Ms. Marina rounded out the day. Ticking things off my list of questions but also adding them as well😂 For those of you going through the cycle for the first time, use this time to get your answers to all of your questions. About your poomsaes, self-defenses, kicks, weapons, the test, everything. Don't wait until the overnight to find out that you have practiced something wrong the whole time or that you didn't learn things that are on your curriculum. Work on your essays, don't wait until the last minute. Enough advice for the night, have a good weekend and I'll see you in class.
