Last night in chat Mr. Conatser was kind enough to do a prelimary run on the upcoming live Question and Answer.
He discussed briefly the 3 basic zones of heighth. He also let me stumble around and try to think about how to take advantage of the zones opening and closing. Reading the movements to watch and see what zones will open and close with what type of movement.
Made me realize how much I am not thinking about when doing a technique. More reason to do the tech slow so one can think about what zones he/she is exposing when doing a strike, kick or an all out technique. It is kind of overwhelming to think about at times.
So the question at what level should a student start really considering these ideas. I am a very low level colored belt. While I understand the topics and ideas, I am still trying to work the techs well enough to meet my own expectations.
