- Today we are going to work on OBSERVING.
- OBSERVING refers to how you use your eyes to help figure out and solve problems.
- This is important, especially in martial arts to be able to see different techniques to help better understand how they work.
Here are the three ways that we are going to improve your OBSERVING today:
1. Having OBSERVING eyes by watching your partner. 2. Using OBSERVING to count kicks. 3. Using OBSERVING to understand basics.Skill-Building Drills – 15 Minutes
