2023 Soke cup in review
1. What was your favourite thing(s) about the whole Soke Cup experience?
All the different countries and the way they train. (international clinic)
2. What did you learn from the experience?
- Kata - relied on all the training I had done. Didn't get nervous until I got up to perform but I was OK.
- Kumite - did the opposite. Need to do more kumite to prepare physically and mentally.
3. If you were to do it all again, what would you do differently?
It was good not to get anything in Kumite so I can learn for next time. Practice patience.
4. What would you say to those who might have their eye on the next Soke Cup?
Try to do it but you really need to stay committed and do all of the training. I think I've improved because of the training that I did do.
