Training- "Chunk" training
What is “Chunk Training?”
Chunk training is the process of segmenting steps and parts of the training process into manageable “chunks” and training them until they are acquired.You see dancers,  Karate students, musicians , football players (most sports really), practicing components of the final product. Scales are well known as a fundamental in piano playing for example. Get the basics down, add on and create the masterpiece. Students accumulate these parts, then engage in the completed activity. When you practice at home, and you can practice with or without a bow, choose an element and practice in front of a mirror. Do it correctly again. Again. Again. The more you schedule time for this training, the better you become. Watch yourself in the mirror, or have yourself filmed. Even set your own camera up and review it. Building training from 3 days, to 4, to every day will give you endurance, and a comfortable auto sequence to rely on. We will go back and focus more thoroughly on certain “steps” we worked on last week, and how to train with and without equipment.
