Long weekend

This weekend was a tough weekend on the personal side. I will talk about this more later in the blog.

I am glad that I went to my first Sanshou class. I found everyone really helpful on giving me pointers on what I was doing wrong. At the end I took two shots to the head and two shots to my nose. All were deserved as I did not keep my guards up.  I am going to continue to go to this class to improve my skills. None of the hits were hard and they were "teaching hits".

I was reluctant to go to Sanshou.  I played a lot of hockey growing up and have had a few concussions and I don't want to have any more. I was very concerned that I may be opening myself up for having more in Sanshou. Sifu Wiebe told me it is a good environment to train and everyone would respect where I was at in my training.  

I was very impressed by what went on in the class and am thankful for everyone who helped me out.

I spent most of the weekend with my family dealing with some family issues.  My family is scattered all over western canada so even though it was tough to deal with things it was great to have time with my brothers and sister.
