It seems to me that forms serve to exercise the principles of motion and self defense. They are like expressions of basic skills. Some of them (Short 3 plus) are constructed out of self defense techniques. I was wondering what order people teach the above in. For example, do you teach a student how to cover, then teach them short form 1? Short form 1 then how to cover? Both at the same time? Along the same line, for the forms based on techniques, do you teach the form after, before, or at the same time as the techniques?
