Recently I've been getting lots of training time on the mats, but I haven't been spending a lot of time training off the mats. Since school started, I haven't had much time to practice Kung Fu at home. When I get home from school, I have about 30 minutes before I need to leave for classes. That quickly turns into 5 minutes after doing everything I need to. The only day that I'm not at the Kwoon is Friday, and that's usually the day we do things as a family. Every other day, I'm spending a decent amount of time at the kwoon, whether it's my classes or being involved with other classes. So while I still get lots of practicing in, almost none of it is on my own. While that can be helpful in some cases, it can also be the exact opposite in some others. If I get stuck in something, I can take a quick glance at some of the other students and get an idea of what I need to do. But if I come up with a question, I can get it answered immediately if I want to, but if I'm training by myself then I have to try and find the answer in my knowledge. Sometimes it can be nice to have a question answered right as you get it, but other times it helpful to work it out yourself, because it can prompt other questions and things to train on. Thankfully, I haven't had too much homework so far this year, so I haven't had much need to cram that into my schedule as well.
