Tech 2

Free training, students to work on a tech that they need to improve 15min

A good ides is to put a list of all techs for each belt of level on the wall, students can decide which they need to train on, the next 4 weeks is grading time for our students, so free training helps

Tech 3

Defending knife threats and straight stab from side, grab isn’t possible so slap weapon away kick and run, defending straight stab, intercept and deflect the attack and lean back away for a body defence if possible

Cool down & stretch.
