May. 9th, 2007 07:45 pmDid my first poomsae practice since the Open tonight. Seems a few things can slip in a week and a half. Pyongwon and Sipjin were pretty sharp though, so the extra practice i put in on those two is still making a difference. Still, i need to get the other patterns up to scratch, or i won't make it through to the last round to do those two.
Tonight i was watching for problem areas, particularly those that are hand or stance related, so i can work on them during the day wthout having to be stretched. Those i noted were as follows:
Taegeuk 6: Front stance is off on the last two moves. Need to straighten this up.
Koryo: Last line (coming back) still needs work.
Keumgang: Still wobbling in hakdari seogi - not sure if it was the uneven ground, but should practice more to be sure. In particular the third time (coming straight from hinge punch) gives me trouble.
Taebaek: The spear-hand / pull out, backfist combination (as usual). Work on keeping balance and stepping easily into the following punch.
More if i think of it.
