I worked Lead leg round and side kicks as well as rear leg round and side kicks. I have a lot of balance issues with both of those kicks, but I got progressively better as I practiced them, I have some drills to work on to help me as well with those.
My round kicks I kept wanting to pull up my toes, but I am supposed to keep my foot flat so I worked that as well. I think I finally got it though. Then I went to working with a bag, kicking it and such. Billy seemed pretty pleased with them at the end of the day and wanted me to start kicking higher. So I got higher(or as high as I could). He also gave me a couple of drills to get my kicks to be higher so I will be working those too.
At the end of the class he was telling us about our next test dates. He said that I am basically ready to test, but I personally don't feel ready yet. Not with my kicks anyway, I need some more work with them. We'll see. If they think I am ready then I am all for it, plus it's not like it's next week or anything.
During the next few weeks I am going to be working really hard on my balance and keeping my feet flat when I do the round kicks. I should be all set in time to test. Until next time!
