Thanks for posting these, RamZ.
I can't read a roadmap, but everyone here is smarter than me and will be able to decipher them.

Jen you are smart, Map reading just isn't for everybody, the only reason I can do it was I was forced in to Copilot Service for my dad at a young age!!!

...And I had to take Day and Night Nav courses back in my Jarhead days.

Don't feel dumb. I couldn't do it until I looked at the captions below each form. Then they made more sense.

Thanks RamZ, these will be very helpful. Could we also get written directions to Form 1? I want to start practicing more on my own when my life/brain is a little less chaotic.

Here is Shii-Cho written out. I used Darth Junduri's films from NY Jedi to map them out. I think that General Sun from NY Jedi also did an outstanding job on his vids as well. So if anything is unclear, you can use them for reference. This SHOULD be right, but both Darth Jinduri and General Sun had a little bit of differences in footwork. But since it's the angle of attack and defense that we mainly care about, it's easy to improvise on the foot work. I just prefer Darth Jinduri because everything is done with a full step forward.

Have fun!
