Competition coming up

I believe you all already know about this. Competition!
Most of us are of course looking forward to this, Especially those that will be in it for the first time. It is time to show what you have learn so far and apply it.

It is true that you spar at every training but this time the atmosphere will be different. It will only be you and your opponent in the field that is fighting and everyone else will be watching. You will feel the pressure. You do not want to lose but you are so scared that you do. It is just like in a real fight, you lose once you get hit. You will be trying your best to hit your enemy but at the same time try not to get hit. True that you do that during sparring also but you still do get hit and sometimes it does not bother you. As during competiton, they will be more pressure which actually brings up your concentration which plays an important role in your survival. So if you want to be prepared for competition, best way is to train more on your concentration. The best way for me is to use a kodachi against a choken. I realise my movement speed and concentration was higher than usual when I used the kodachi against a choken.

Okay I should be letting you know the details of the competition. Got sidetracked a bit. Competition exciting mah. So anyway competition date I believe all of you know already. It is on the 29th of October which is a Saturday. The venue will be where we always train which is the polycentre. The time given is 8am to 6.30pm so try not to be late. Hopefully a lot of people participate as this will be fun if there are even more people participating. Try your best and try not to lose concentration.

That is all and hopefully I did not miss anything out. Check out the other blog for details about the upcoming grading which is right after competition. ^^
