My first class

The village of Cronton on Hudson accepted my proposal to teach Soo Bahk Do as part of the towns recreation offerings!


I will be teaching 8 classes 7pm-8pm every Wednesday starting January 19th at the Muni building.

This will be an introduction class which I hope will continue and become something more.

My kids have told me they wish to help out. So this could be my way to get them back into the studio. :)

11/5/10 Springfield Class with KJN

I missed Tuesdays class due to school being out for my kids and Ian’s broken wrist over the weekend.

KJN taught class last night. As always it was a class full of information most of which I am sure I will miss in this post.

First this Tuesday 11/9 is SBD anniversary so it is a good date to try and bring anyone who might have been absent for a while back.



We working on Chil Sung Il Ro:

1. hips move the hands... People have a tendency to do the breathing motions like the first one moving the hand/arm before the hip. The hands hardly move for these motions but more follow their natural position when the hip moves. We only guide them into position.
   • The right hand for the first motion is level so you could put a tea cup on it. Elbow with slight bend.
2. second motion,
   • again arms/hands are pulled into position from the hip.
   • Final position has the right hand solar plexus level and 3-5 inches away from your chest.

Combos:

1. Attacker 3 punch high attack


2. Defender
   
   
   
   • retreat into a hugle stance while doing a double high block: arms parallel to ground at 90 degree angle up
   
   
   • second retreat using sacaro jip remaining in hugle stance and simultaneously blocking with open hands in front of face and lower.
   
   
   • third motion is imediately after block, side step into double back fist and reverse round house kick.
