  • Today we are going to work on ORIENTATION.
  • ORIENTATION means ones’ position in relation to a specific place or object.
  • This is important because you need to be aware of where you are in relation to your opponent and recognize which block you should use.

Here are the three ways that we are going to improve your ORIENTATION skills today:

1. Showing proper ORIENTATION of your body when disoriented. 2. Having ORIENTATION to maximize speed while changing directions 3. Having ORIENTATION in response to an attack
