Part 2! Can’t imagine why anyone would ever give a hard time… 🧦

I’m a firm believer that the bulk of a student’s progression comes not from the coach, the drills or their training partners, but from the responsibility that they take for their own skill development.

The highest level guys that I have ever sparred or rolled with do this naturally.

They pick a specific idea, tactic or technique, and relentlessly spam it in their training.

Have you ever rolled with a blackbelt and been arm barred 4 or 5 times in a single round?

Chances are they are doing the same thing to everyone on the mat, because that’s what they are currently focusing on.

This idea can be carried across the martial arts.

Focused training > general sparring.

Train with intentionality and watch your progress sky-rocket.

As you can see, there are a wide variety of reasons why people start training 😅🤣

Nah in all seriousness, whatever situation you are currently in, it’s hard to imagine how quality training and having a laugh with good people wouldn’t benefit your life 👊

We keep all of our Beginners sessions as live as possible.

This means working with a training partner who is actively trying to defend whatever you are trying to do to them.

This is truly the only way you develop real ‘martial’ or combat skill.

Padwork and bagwork probably have their place as you progress and become a more experienced martial artist.

But in the early stages, you need to build general understanding and context about how a fight really feels.

We do this quickly and safely by limiting certain factors such as power, intensity and the number of ‘tools’ you have to work with.

This way we speed up the learning process and whilst managing stress and reducing injury potential.

And before you know it, punches and kicks flying your way ain’t nothin but a thang, you feel way more comfortable in the chaos, you can actually fight.

2 for the price of 1 this morning. I’m sure other coaches can relate to these training partner selection debacles grinding their gears, and don’t even get me started on trying to get kids classes to pick their partners 🤣

There’s a special place in martial arts hell reserved for this lot. Don’t be that guy. Be cool. Be humble 👍
