Pressure testing
Pressure testing in our Dojo is different to sparring, we will isolate an area of study and place a student under pressure so they can find out about how they naturaly respond. It might be against grabs, punches , kicks etc but always against multiple opponents. So as soon as you have delt with one there's another waiting to take their place with no chance to collect your thoughts or breath inbetween. This may go on for sometime with students rotating in and out of the attacker or defender roles.
At first most students are very panicky and erratic, they often lose control of their breathing and forget to breath, even though they know they're safe. Another common response is to get stuck in a loop of doing the same defence over and over (omote gyaku, front kicks are common) instead of being able to apply a wide range of techniques from their training.
With pratice they settle down and their clear thinking returns, breathing normalises etc and they're back in the game again.
