I was back in Singapore for a very short while, and managed to squeeze in some time to visit my teacher, Mr Kwek, for a short reunion. Nothing fancy, just some time to catch up, talk about how I am getting on in Japan, and how his lessons are progressing. Then he wanted to see how much I have dropped, and so we did a bit of pushing hands. I don't think I have dropped, but neither have I improved. First time pushing hands in a year... my teacher commented that my force is not stiff, which is a good thing. And he gave some tips on what to focus on given my lack of time for practice (compared to the past).
A short visit, but a meaningful one.
