I Know About the Pivot but Cannot Use It When It Counts

01 · The Situation

You can do it on the pads when there is no pressure. In sparring, when someone is coming at you and the angle is there, the pivot is gone.

02 · Your Turn

In your next sparring round, your only job is to attempt the pivot every time someone pressures you. Not once or twice — every time. You will miss most of them. That is fine. Count how many times you attempt it. Come back with the number.
