Some quick notes on kendo
I have been limited to how many trainings I can get to due to having to be at the shop on Thursday nights - sigh.
Anyway here are some notes to myself so I remember them.
There is a time when you can sense your opponent wants to attack and you wait for them to go so you can do a counter strike. Try this I am always too slow. I need to apply some counter pressure to control the timing of their attack. I understand the theory of this but may take a while to get the practice down.
I seem to be doing a little half step before striking men. This is giving away my intention to the opponent. I need to work on attacking in a single motion rather than doing this pause in closing the range.
Range - again I tend to allow my opponent to be too close. I need to do something (like attack) if they come in.
