Children's Class Weekly Re-Cap, March 7-9, 2023
Lil’ Leopards
This week in the Lil’ Leopards class we balanced with bean bags and practiced our aim and listening by tossing bean bags into a hoop.
Kung Fu At Home: Ask your child if they can pick up a bean bag (or a pair of socks (rolled), small stuffy, or other small soft item) using just their elbows.
Tiny Tigers
In our Tiny Tigers classes this week we worked on our punches and learned how to do a backfist. We also worked on our teamwork, hand-eye coordination, foot-eye coordination (lol) and our patience with our ball passing drill.
Kung Fu At Home: Ask your child to show you a proper fist (hint: make sure they aren’t tucking their thumbs in!).
Young Dragons Level 1&2
For both Young Dragons classes we continued working on our Lion Dancing and practiced being both a head and a tail. We also did a “Sifu Swap” drill where we covered all kinds of things like kicks, punches and sparring. Alot of effort was put into specific techniques from our Lao Gar form (Level 1) and our Da Mu Hsing form (Level 2) and we also started to work on both Buddha Dancing and Dragon Dancing.
Kung Fu At Home: Ask your child what their favourite traditional dance is…Lion, Dragon or Buddha dancing. Post to WhatsApp so we know!
