After that, did some conditioning.  Mainly abs.

Notes:
Instructor has no problem with me doing things the Muay Thai way (ala
my roundhouses, elbows, and knees) rather than the KB way. 
Good workout.  INstructor is lax on correcting technique, but there are mirrors everywhere.
Mainly female crowd. 
Hands torn from improper punching form.

Was major fun.
