Smiling at his praise, even if she wasn't exactly sure what to think of it, Ange decided to continue the idea her mother had taught her.

"Thanks. Ok so, what my mother always told me to do when sparring with someone is watch how they attack first. Get a feeling for what they do, and how it affects you. Something that most people don't realise is you can learn a lot about attacking while defending. Thinking about how to avoid, block, dodge and all that tells you things about them."

Poking Carol's shoulder, making him twist slightly, Ange demonstrated her point.

"Kind of like that. When I made contact with you, your body shifted. You can view that for both attacking and defending. Any opportunities you could gain from their attack, or any that you should try and avoid when you are attacking."
