What a great class we had on Friday. It was the first formal class for the sheep team. The first class of the new year is one of my favorites. New teammates, new year and a fresh start. It was so nice to see the new teamates and help them along. For me personally it was a little odd to walk out and not have my nunchucks in my hands. Its a little bitter sweet as I had spent almost four years developing my skills with them. Also the way the year ended I can't put them down completly.
It's pretty cool developing a form and with double broad swords it feels like an extension of my chucks. I'm feeling very motivated right now, I want to pick up my weapons and come to class. I want this to continue for the rest of the year. As long as I use the tools I'm confident that I will have a succesfull sheep year.
One of the coolest things is to hear some of my teammates tell me that I inspired them to learn the double nunchucks. Wow that's super humbling and super cool all at the same time! I love to teach so this is going to be an important part of my training this year.
