While at the Civic Center, I decided it was also a good time to touch on my WCoS training. I went through a formal display of my requirements for Red Rope. I have not done this in a while. I was satisfied with my technique, but I had a couple minor mistakes in the order of techniques that, though I realized and correctly quickly, would not be ideal during a test. The correct order should be; Defensive Stance, Basic Cuts, Chop Cuts, Advanced Blocks, Cutting Pattern 1, Cutting Pattern 2, Cutting Pattern 3, My 13 Practiced Moves, Kata Ichi, Kata Ni, Five Traditions, Three Types of Practiced Moves, Refined Strikes.
Additionally, since I have been out of classes, I believe two additional stances have been added directly after Defensive Stance; Warrior Stance and Jodan Stance. I will have to confirm this as I get back into serious training for my next test.
