32 Form Sword - Another Question

Post by Lodro »

This one is regarding the 10th form (? - the one just after the leg block - sword protecting right leg). In my class the other day I kind of missed out the last part of the form. Now I'm not sure how far the sword should be brought over to the right before the jab out to the front - does it swing to the right, turn sword over, swing back, jab to front - or - does it swing to the right (not very much - how far?), turn sword over (without swinging back because it's already there), jab to front.

None of this would matter because I could sort it out next lesson, except that our class has finished for the year and won't be starting again until February. I don't want to practice a wrong move and get into a habit. Any thoughts from people more knowledgable than myself (which would be most) would be most appreciated.

Thanks again

I may be able to help you there.

If you have a broadband connection (or enough patience), you can download a clip from my site with the entire 32 form.
