Kalitta decided to forgo the standard Klingon outfit that she wears while off duty, for a more comfortable white cotton outfit that allows for greater movement. She picked up her bat’leth that was hanging on her wall and walked down the corridor greeting her fellow crew members as she made her way down to the recreation room. Once there she set up the padded mats.Once the mats were down Kalitta began her stretching routine while waiting for the others to arrive.

Oscar stooped into the training room. He saw Kalitta stretching out on the mats, He walked over to a spare mat and slowly began stretching himself.
“Commander. I decided to take you up on the training session. Where do you want me?”
Kalitta smiled, her yellowish sharpened teeth showing proversly. “Pick a spot anywhere on the mats, we will continue stretching for another ten minutes or so and then we will get on with the lesson.”

Myrok entered he saw the opponents and smirked” May I join you?”

“Come, Ensign, pick a spot and start stretching out. We will get on with the lesson shortly. We are just waiting to see if others will be joining us.”
Kalitta then started to move her hands slowly in front of her, making an ‘X’ All the movements she made were slow, deliberate, and fluid.
Kalitta stood up straight. “We have waited long enough. Have either of you had previous Martial Arts training?” She looked between her two students waiting for an answer.
“The difference between Mok’bara and many other Martial art forms is that it doesn’t rely on strength or brute force.” She then spread her feet apart shoulder distance apart and put her arms out in front of her slightly bent at the elbows. She then slowly moved her arms up and down from shoulder height down to hip level then back up. All the while being slow, fluidic and deliberate. “The closest martial art I have found to Mok’bara is the humans Tiachi.” She then turned to her students. “Now you try it.”

OOC: If you want to know what’s coming up in the lesson watch this Taichi clip. In my research on Mok’bara is mentioned a lot to be like Taichi so we will be following those lessons first. then we will move on to the batleth training.
