Technique issue
Question in regards to the wrist roll warm up I find it extremely difficult to perform with my non-dominant hand are there progressions to build up this skill?

Good question Christopher 👍 and yes, that’s completely normal. Most people struggle with the wrist roll on their non-dominant side. It’s not a strength issue, it’s a coordination and timing issue, which is exactly why we warm it up and train it. A few simple progressions that usually help: • Slow it right down Forget speed. Do the roll as slowly as you can so you can actually feel what the wrist and forearm are doing. • Reduce the movement Don’t force a big circle straight away. Start with a smaller roll and gradually increase the range as it smooths out. • Isolate it Take footwork and combinations out of the equation. Just work the wrist roll on its own for 30–60 seconds. • Use your dominant side as a reference Do a few reps with your dominant hand, then immediately switch and try to copy the same feeling on the non-dominant side. • Little and often This is nervous system training, not conditioning. A minute or two every session beats trying to grind through it. The important thing to remember is: if it feels awkward, that means it’s working. We’re building dexterity, joint health and ambidexterity, not trying to make it look pretty on day one. Stick with it and it will come together. I will make a short instructional video to help and upload it here.

Live Training Sessions
Hopefully we have sorted out the teething problems and we can get these live classes running more frequently. This session we are working a single stick and footwork. We start with the simplest stick strikes the downwards X. Then we worked the forwards shuffle - Backwards shuffle- left and right shuffle. We then played with the lateral triangle footwork and finished with the female triangle footwork. Have fun and have a play.
