What is your typical class like?

koreantiger81 · Blue Belt

At my school, we divide classes up into 3 different classes..For one class we focus on sparring, forms, joint-locks, kicking, or drills...(doing all these in one class would be too much on the student in my view)
Anyway, we first warm up for 10 minutes..Then we focus on the topic of that class for 25 minutes..After that, all students are sat down and evaluated...Every student gets attention from the instructors...Once that's done, we do a cool-down period...

what are your classes like?

KickChick · Black Belt

Advanced classes are conducted a bit differently ... but in the typical adult class we have a 10 min. warm up .... floor techniques for 20 or so. All levels begin together and as techniques progress up to advanced levels those lower ranks are bowed out and go over to heavy bags to work on kicks or practice their form. Then the class does forms all together starting at 1st form to the form of the highest belt. Each student is bowed out or can continue to do their own form if the next form called out is not their form (next belt rank form). Ususally the last 15 min. ... we do stations, drill work, jump kicks to hanging heavy bag (jumping over chairs or kick targets mounted one on top ot the other) .... roll the wavemasters out for kick drills or focus pad drill s... or sparring.
Some classes will have self defense (aikido too) takedown techniques, breaking class, (--the owner instructor like to mix it up for variety).....
