class * geddon

[p_quick]

hey everyone i'm looking to teach a back to basics class at geddon on friday morning if enough people are interested. I taught the class at this last SKBC and it went over really well.

Any takers?

[Big King Jimmy]

I'm in.

[Caleidah]

Seconded, if I can make it there.

[Nish]

[Winfang]

Can I put my daughter in this class? She'll be at 'Geddon with me and she's 8.

[Forkbeard]

I'll take your class at chaos, Pete. But only if you also teach me to act like a proper lady. Book balanced on my head and how to courtsy.

[Arrakis]

Yes, please.


Also, teach me not to suck at Florentine. I just can't get the hang of the denial guard+swordside block positioning.

[Brooder]

I'd be hard pressed to find many people who would pass up this opportunity.

I never get to take this class at SKBC. I would like to take it at geddon.

[p_quick]

Dr. TheQuick - feel free to send me the notes you have if you want, and I can put them up online somewhere in case people lose them or even for others to review.

[Winfang]

No Casey, she'll be at home with the baby. So it'll just be the kid and I. However she and the kid be at EQ and sadly I wouldn't be. Hell at this rate my kid is going to more events then her parents.

[Tyr Zaraki]

Me and a few buddies would attend.

[Slagar]

I'm there. I also volunteer for duty as demonstration dummy, if you need one.

[p_quick]

[Hurin]

I was looking to do a weapon checking class on Thursday during weapons check and basic combat archery on Friday afternoon.

[p_quick]

I was thinking about saturday morning near the end of Weapons check.

[Winfang]

Thanks for running this class Peter. It was a lot of good information. Where is are the class notes? I did a quick look on SKBC's website but didn't see them.

Nevermind, I found them.

np, =) thanks for coming.

[Arrakis]

Couldn't explain the flat wraps accurately in text on the Dag boards to a guy, so I shot some amateurish videos today showing some kind of broke-down, probably not 100% correct definitions for the various flat wraps. Hopefully this helps somebody, anyway.

Critique? Nomenclature is a little off, I think. Technique?

Put these in this thread because it's all stuff I wouldn't have known if I hadn't attended this class.

[p_quick]

looks alright, you are kinda sloppy on your arm movement. there is alot of extra movement. if you tighten your arm motion up it will snap alot faster and hit harder.

and you are all arm especially in the the reverse wrap section. try to use your body more. the shots should come from your feet up through your body and out your arm.

[Arrakis]

Thanks, Peter!

I was exaggerating the arm motions for the sake of the video, but I was throwing kind of arm-y that day. I need to be aware of that when I'm fighting and correct it.

[p_quick]

=) good luck man let me know if i can help
