Day 2 (Tuesday): did the medium practice

Week 2
Topic: Approaching Gioco Largo – High Quadrants
Plan: Complete big, medium and short practices, attend a live class, target an assessment and hopefully get in a bit of partner training
-
Day 5 (Sunday): Masterclass workshop.
Great way to round off the week. Highs were getting an assessment in and lows were Nic was poorly so couldn’t do any partner training. Aha was probably the workshop idea to use a metronome to gear yourself to a particular speed, as well as the advice to conceptualize speed 2 as “Principal’s office”!

Day 4 (Saturday): Attempted one of the video assessments for the first time today. Hoping that I’ve broken that particular mental barrier and can continue to make a short assessment video every week now.

Day 3 (Friday): big practice, trying to do foundational cuts form with left hand only
-
Day 2 (Thursday): Medium Practice – tiring!

Pleased because I finally got around to submitting my last Masterclass play building assessment this week. Did get 20 mins of partner practice in, but should try to spend more time on partner practice next week. Aha moment was more clearly distinguishing between the conditions compelling a rising deflection into window guard vs a rising parry into window guard.
