During the class yielding to your opponent's application of 'Fair Lady Weaves Shuttle,' some students were able to increase the force of their response by connecting the two sides of the body.
When yielding on one side, the force is emptied from your opponent, fed through your arm and body across your back, and out through the other arm. To achieve this it is important to relax across the back and control the movement with the feet and waist.
The students who were successful with this were able to stay connected to their opponent's force and not block their own. The difference was quite dramatic.
