After taking a few weeks off for the Christmas break. Brandon stepped back in Class for some Kung Fu sparring. I was impressed by his performance. There did appear to be an increase in skill since last month. However, we don’t plan on taking any time off for the remainder of the year.
Many of his strikes where clean and he had some good kicks. I would like to see him put combo punches coming in at different angles. In addition, we need to work on him not telegraphing his spinning back kick. He did some ground work after sparring. This is his greatest area of opportunity. So, at his request, we have no film of this yet.
We are looking forward to his first large tournament in March. Usually, we just go to local tournaments with maybe a few hundred people. This next tournament will be a Kung Fu Tournament in Houston. We’ll have to drive their on Friday. Spend the night and then do the tournament on Saturday. Afterwards, we’ll have to drive right back. It’s too much of a strain to stay another night with finances, work, and school. We are going to be videoing most of that trip for you guys.
…and now here’s some footage of Brandon Sparring yesterday.
