Yes! I taught martial arts for years and years. The folks that would just come occasionally fell behind rapidly compared to those that were there and practicing all the time. I’d also teach a women’s self-defense class at times. Usually a seven week program, once a week. Those classes were focused on only a few techniques, but practiced over and over. And I encouraged the students to practice on their own. And to take another class regularly, whether from me or another instructor. To paraphrase Bruce Lee, “I don’t fear the person who has practiced 10,000 kicks. I fear the person who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.” This need to practice goes for anything you plan to use for your defense, including guns. If you are a gun owner, going to the range regularly and shooting regularly is vital to being able to use it in a real-life situation.
