Returning from seminars, I find the next few weeks to be of most importance. This is where you attempt to ingrain the corrections to techniques, to concrete your thinking and your checklist to the new or adjusted requirements and focuses.
Taking notes during the seminar will aid in this process, even more so if attending longer seminars. For a couple days at a seminar one might be able to remember all the corrections but for four or more days I think it unlikely many people would be able to retain everything from memory. I take notes for every strike, posture, and form, as well as separately making notes regarding turning.
I am currently alternating days from turning focus and striking focus. Putting in a bit of forms, and standing training every day. Trying to currently remember all the striking alterations and postural adjustments. This also helps in that all information is repeatedly covered every two days to help try to ingrain new information as soon as possible.
In addition the short clips posted on YouTube and Facebook are also very helpful to go back to and review for application. I personally have trouble following them all in person and in such a short time but with the ability to review each over and over again, watching the hands, and then the feet separately really helps a ton.
