I am facing a situation were for a little while I wont have anyone to work out with. I will be a solo Kung Fu'ist off and on, my teacher is working extra houres as I am myself so I will be working out mainly late at night.
For myself I have found that using the Wing Chun dummy is a really good sub for a sparing partner, of course not the same but still very useful. Doing the mook form and several of the drills can be done on the mook also. This and using the heavy bag doing drills and free flowing movements. Shadow sparing, and free flowing foot work.
What d you guys do when you find yourself without someone to spar with and don't want to get rusty? Just wondering what other methods and training are out there that works well.
