forms seminar

This weekend I had the privilege of attending the forms seminar put on by our school. It was a pretty good turn out I think, although I'm sure all the black belts would like to see more people utilizing this resource. I kinda wish I could do a one-on-one for an hour every weekend till I got through all my forms, just to see what else I need to work on! I took on an ambitious form that I hadnt learned yet, and did get halfway through it. The hardest part is always the performance at the end, and the critique. I did learn alot about the forms done by my classmates; knowing the form made it easy to see where I could improve by the critique they were given, so I am grateful for that. The part I found amusing was the scoring and the winner; to be honest, I never heard a single score, I was just waiting to run off the stage; and apparently I wasnt the only one! Some things I learned besides the technical stuff; I hate being up in front of audiences. I dont take criticism well. I dont take compliments well either. I love the spear. Profound? No.
