Initial impressions: I'm excited to continue learning today. We are supposed to learn how to escape while being pinned down.
Well, the class was amazing! When we arrived we had to sign a video release because they were recording our class! Andrea came today and I was so excited to see her. I loved working with Marvel and Kristina but I missed Andrea. I'm actually glad I got to train with other women as well. It gave me an opportunity to see if Andrea was just being nice and just letting me escape. Today, we started class with a warm-up similar to day one. I don't remember how many of each exercise we did but I know it was similar to day one so if you are curious just reread day one's warm up again. Then we got to business. Professors Amber and Rafael first presented us with how to do power kicks. We then had two minutes to practice the kicks with our partner. Poor Andrea I kicked hard. After our two minutes were up Professors Amber and Rafael shared with us a basic pin escape. We practiced, then they moved onto a choking pin escape. We practiced and Professor Rafael saw me struggling and guided me through the movements so I could escape properly. During my hip escape, I was using the wrong leg to hold my partner back and was forgetting to straighten out my body before kicking. I need more practice on the choking pin escape but our time ran out and we moved onto how to escape when our wrists are pinned down. I must admit today is my favorite day so far! I can’t wait to see what day five has in store!
