After several weeks of working on counters with several bruises and one cracked toe nail, I finally make my decision on counters. Yep, I really really like them.
Of late, there has only been small classes down at the club where I train so there has be more time to work with these things.
So, after one session of trying (unsuccessfully on most occasions) to counter techniques in free play, I really enjoyed working on counters (apart from leaving the mat at several points during the evening of course).
I don't know what it is about counters that I like, its kinda of the rhythm of the flow of the technique if you know what I mean. But yes, I know that they don't really work particularly in kata, but that still doesn't displace their magic they weave when they are done in full flow in freeplay...
