 |

My Instructor allways picks me to demonstrate techniques with in front of the class. And I have Absolute no idea why. I think im fairly average calibur student. I just wish i wouldnt get picked all the time since i cant see the move right to do it with someone else.
Can you help me out on figuring why this is and why you choose someone to demonstrate moves. |

If the instructor picks on you, he believes you're competent..Think of it as a compliment...If you have a problem with being picked, just kindly talk to your instructor..  |

You may be the right size and build to most effectivly demonstrate the technique. You may also be good at breaking a fall or going with a technique. I find that it is good to be on the recieving end of a demonstration because you get the feel of a technique it also helps me think of a counter.

Maybe your instructor thinks you are competant, or maybe he thinks ure a trouble maker who needs teaching a lesson.
Bet on the former though

As a coach when I keep picking on a player I see that he is ready to move up tot henext leval. I see somethng in him that he don't see in himself. Maybe this is what is goign on.
However he may just like punching, kicking and throwing you too. LOL.

When I did TSD, I used to be the instructor's "dummy" for self defense moves. I was brave (or stupid) LOL. It was fun, I thought. He used me all the time, and I didn't complain (I just tapped out all the time hehehehe).
My TKD school mostly uses red and black belts. But yesterday, my instructor used me and a few other color belts. I kinda missed that  It was fun.

The person who volunteers to have everything done on them learns the most in the end.

| i like being demonstrated on, it shows me how the person should react to, lets say, a pressure point. and it means my ukemi is being practised. |
