Feb 21, 22: Marietta Range: Chunk Training, Equipment Training

Thanks to everyone that came out to the Marietta location range last week for some fun and training with "Cupids Arrow"! We also held an advanced training session group with a focus on the back draw elbow. This was the first session at this location! We got into the new space on the heels of the previous tenant moving out, and tested how the space works in various set ups with the classes. Last week we stayed warm with space heaters- this week the heat is on -nice and warm (Yay!)

   
Tournament results:
We got some feed back from the State JOAD results with Jenna Biggins taking Bronze, Alex Goetomo Silver, and in the State Tourney: Alex Goetomo took Gold, Connie Morris took Bronze,
Congratulations!

Split group training
This weeks "Chunk training" focus will train one group closer to the target line, which allows the class to split and take the other group back to an equipment training area, then rotate the two.

We will begin providing equipment training sessions with this session being the first component.
If more than 16 enroll in the class doodle, we may open a new class option slot

As the indoor championships wind down (This weekend is the Nationals) focus shifts toward outdoor training. The distances outdoors mean the variables show up more on the target face, therefor timing and consistent form becomes even more significant. Chunk training is the process of segmenting steps and parts of the training process into manageable “chunks” and training them until they are acquired. Dancers, Karate students, musicians, football players (most sports really), practice components of the final product. Scales are well known as a fundamental in piano playing for example. Get the basics down, add on, and create the masterpiece. Students accumulate these parts, then engage in the completed activity.
This week we will be working on 2 separate drills and skill sets-foot position and draw hand fingers  position, at closer distances to see the evidence on the targets as we begin training techniques to get ready for outdoor tournament play.
