Footworks...

Before that, correction...
On monday, it should be urakenuchi 裏拳うち, not urakentsuki. Haha... my bad.

Well, other than having two hand that punch, it is as important, to have good footwork, to bring you to your enemy to hit your enemy, and to bring you away from your enemy after you hit your enemy, or when your enemy attack.

Leong Lok Senpai told me to repeat this:
Nekoashi, Zenkutsu, Nekoashi (all with one leg moving in and out, no stepping forward).
Especially the pulling back is important. This will ensure that you pull back, away from your enemy after the attack.

Well, I guess i have neglected this for a long time.
During target training, i tend to stay in front of my oponent after hitting the target. I don't pull back, I don't shift aside.
It may be alright if the oponent is taken down with one punch (that is what we aim to do), but it is a good practice to take precaution all the time. Thus, we should pull ourselves back or push ourselves to the other side, facing the oponent after every charging, instead of standing upclose, or worse, with the back facing the oponent.

Today's 一言:Need more footwork training
