  • Episode 935 - 2 Schools of Thought: Forms in a Set Order?
    Jul 11 2024

    SUMARRY
    In this conversation, Jeremy and Andrew discuss two schools of thought when it comes to teaching forms in martial arts. The first school of thought is teaching forms in a set order, where students learn one form after another in a predetermined sequence. The second school of thought is a rotating curriculum, where students focus on one form for a certain period of time before moving on to the next form. They explore the pros and cons of each approach and discuss the challenges of managing different levels of students in a class.

    TAKEAWAYS
    * There are two schools of thought when it comes to teaching forms in martial arts: a set order and a rotating curriculum.
    * A set order approach involves teaching forms in a predetermined sequence, while a rotating curriculum focuses on one form for a certain period of time before moving on to the next.
    * The set order approach ensures that students learn forms in a progressive manner, starting with easier forms and gradually progressing to more complex ones.
    * The rotating curriculum approach allows students to develop a deeper understanding and proficiency in a specific form by focusing on it for an extended period of time.
    * Managing different levels of students in a class can be challenging, especially when teaching forms. It requires finding a balance between meeting the needs of individual students and maintaining a cohesive class structure.
