We all circled up and volunteers jumped in the middle to show each technique that was covered. The video is for personal use only, however. We hope it does not end up on Youtube...Triinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12884133124578343014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7583619847337901660.post-4940858472735013872011-11-16T01:55:28.150-05:002011-11-16T01:55:28.150-05:00I make sure I take a pen and paper with me in semi...I make sure I take a pen and paper with me in seminars. I try hard to describe in details how the moves were executed. Otherwise, I won't remember any! If the gym allows, I take photos/videos to help me remember better.Jonna || Pink Jiujitsuhttp://www.pinkjiujitsu.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7583619847337901660.post-21265130138392655852011-11-15T09:44:51.383-05:002011-11-15T09:44:51.383-05:00At seminars, I watch the technique demonstration w...At seminars, I watch the technique demonstration with my notebook in hand and write things down as they're shown. And if during drilling I see something important that I missed, I'll stop and write that down, too, or at least write it down during the transition to the next technique. My notebook stays close beside me during seminars.<br /><br />That usually at least gives me enough details -- and the proper order of techniques! -- to jog my memory later so I can reconstruct what happened. (Though I have been known to resort to choking my pillow while trying to recreate an unclear description, lol.)<br /><br />For class, we usually only go over 1 or 2 techniques a night, so that makes those easier to remember. I also repeat details in my head as the instructor shows them; by the 3rd or 4th time he does it, I'm mentally calling out the moves and details as he goes for them.lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05603807319832815566noreply@blogger.com
