From Taekwondo, to Karate, to Kickboxing…kicks are a HUGE part of our training at the Academy! So it makes sense that you’d put in the work off the mats to make them great too! 👏 👏

This game is called TELEPHONE. (Yes, like the whisper passing game!)
Start with your favorite kick.
Then do it again and add another kick you know.
Then do those two and add another kick you know.

Keep going until you a) run out of kicks or b) forget the sequence.
This is also a great game to boost your MEMORY skills - helping not only your martial arts but every other part of your life too!

Extra challenge - how far can you make it without putting your foot down?! 😮

BJJ typically works best with a partner…but sometimes you don’t have someone to work with. Practice with an “invisable” partner! This is a great time to focus on where your hands and feet really need to go to make the move right.

Then, when we’re back on the mats WITH a partner, you have been putting in the work to make each step successful! 👏 👏

Plus - What DOESN’T require a partner to practice? The basics we teach everyone at the Academy…Break Fall & Technical Stand Up!

Our students are familiar with doing patterns in what Mrs. Gentry calls “funny, challenging ways.” Even if you love patterns, adding a bit of challenge can make them even better and solidify your memorization of the moves 🧠

Here’s a list of TEN different ways to practice your pattern today:
1. No hands
2. No feet
3. Laying down
4. On your knees
5. Backwards
6. Saying the name of each move
7. Making a silly noise on each move
8. Only odd numbered moves
9. Only even numbered moves
10. Jumping

Choose one...or do all ten!
