| Balance
Embusen - foot-work and balance is what me in at the tournament last Sunday. It was the AAU, NJ, State Karate Championships. I did seiuncin. In seiunchi there are two gankaku dachi (crane stances). I lost my balance for a split second and it cost me 1st place. I had to settle for a bronze medal. I contantly practice balance by doing my kicks super slow and holding them out.
Thanks,
Tom |
