I am still in the stage where I am having difficulty coordinating my movements, I have had 4 lessons Jiu Jitsu right now. The thing is that you will gradually notice that you are getting better. I am starting to do some basic movements on auto-pilot right now, which is a good thing.
I have never had good coordination, but by practicing MA I am improving it every day.

| The only thing that may be a drawback at first is if your hearts desire is to work with nunchaku. Make sure you have the foam ones. After you whack yourselves a few times with those you will know why not to use the wooden ones until your coordination improves. |

When I began, I used to trip over my own feet. Now, I do so gracefully.

I have naturally really good coordination, so I've never had this problem. But I would guess that the fast action in sparring would force your coordination to improve.
