Skill: Creativity
Drill: Sandwich Combo
Equipment needed: Students need their Bo’s
Instructors needed: A few to monitor
Description: The students will practice their CREATIVITY by seamlessly flowing from their own moves, to the instructor’s, and back to their own.
Step 1
  • Divide the students into 2 or more teams and spread out on the mat.  
Step 2
  • Teach 1 combination from the form.  
Step 3 – Explain the Rules:
  • Students will have 5 minutes to work the combos, adding to the front and back of it with their own creative flows.
  • At the end of 5 minutes, students will battle members of opposing teams to win “most creative combo” (TECHNIQUE & FLUIDITY count).
  • Continue until every student has battled.
  • The team with the most points at the end is the winner.
Step 4 – Takeaways:
  • Sometimes less is more when dealing with the combos; the goal is to look smooth, not move slow and think too much.
  • Keep a steady pace throughout the combo.
  • Be dynamic in your performance; use yells and facial expressions.
Step 5
  • Continue for 2 combos if time allows.
