A few years ago while giving lessons to young students around 10-14 years old, I noticed a funny thing.  When a student seemed to be wandering or not really “locked in”, I had a habit of saying “Focus Daniel Son!” in a corny Chinese voice.  Kids would just look at me with a peculiar look and keep moving on.  Then a kid asked me, “What do you mean when you say that?  Why are you calling me Daniel?”  I came to realize that I was teaching a generation of kids who had no knowledge of the move “Karate Kid”.  I guess I just can’t accept the fact that it was 25 years ago since that movie aired!  Back in my early days of coaching, the wax-on, wax-off was a main-stay in my teaching arsenal. 

So I just wanted to let everyone know, if you have a young boy and he hasn’t seen the Karate Kid, Please rent it, sit as a family and enjoy it.  The wax-on, wax-off episode was really special and can really help a young athlete put into perspective the hard work, the enormous amount of “repetition” that goes in to training for any sport.  But when training for hitting, this is especially true.

So I just wanted to share that and hope that this great family move doesn’t fall through the cracks while a generation of young athletes miss out on it.
