Heian/Pinan Sandan Focus Mitt Drill
3rd video in a series of 5 using the focus mitts to help train some core principles of the Heian/Pinan Sandan kata, which include the angles and having both hands busy. I have used a smaller size set of focus mitts for this drill because of the grappling element, larger focus mitts tend to get in the way. It allows the practitioner to add impact into the kata technique in a safe way, and helps them feed off the response of the pad holder into the proceeding technique developing sensitivity skills. Progress to adding speed and impact when ready. http://youtu.be/OgdCl2DShVA

Hi Lee, I absolutely love those focus mitt drills. They give a lot of motivation to create focus mitt drills myself. Thank you for sharing them. Regards Holger
