Reps

Everyone is different.....
Some of us need to do something 100 times in order for it to sink in, others may only need to do 50. I realized this week that although I have learned my form and can repeat it, I can't repeat it consistently yet and especially when under stress. I think that I need to do more reps than I have been doing (averaging 3 per day) in order to get more comfortable doing it in front of others. My plan is to increase the number of times that I practice without my weapon, so that the moves come more easily and then I can start to work on purpose. I also will try to work on it around my team mates more so that I can ask for feedback and just plain old get more comfortable showing something that is clearly a work in progress.
Although my goal is to complete 1000 reps of my form this year, I think that it will take many more than that for me to feel confident and for me to repeat it consistently.
