Combat Training (Reytrx99 and Maxim6)

As we enter the dojo, i turn and stand in front of you.
"Attack me" i say "We'll spar for a bit, i want to get an idea of your style and experience levels)

I enter the dojo, eager to learn from somebody who was a bit more experienced in combat, as my previous methods generally consisted of charging at the enemy and responding to their attacks. My trainer then asked me to make the first move. Typically I'd try to utilize the distance to fire my crossbow, but I had no weapons. Seeing few other options, I attempted to quickly charge towards him...or at least that's what it looked like. It was really a feint to force him to dodge and open him up to a roundhouse kick.

I leap over you completely, landing, still facing away from you and i speak. "Again."

To my surprise, he leaped clean over me. I decide to try and swing my arm out in an arc like motion to try and hit him before he could react.

Hearing the subtle swish of fabric moving, and the wind above my head, i drop to my back, and slide between your legs, standing, now facing your back and saying "again"

I grumble a bit at missing yet another shot, and start to get annoyed. I thought to myself in my head, then I get an idea. I try the same thing as last time, but this time I prepare myself to sit on him should he try to dash between my legs again.

I roll to the left and then spring forward, ending up diagonally right, facing your back. "Again"

"Dang it, stand still!" I say attempting to attack with multiple punches.

I dodge your frustrated punches, and jump upon your shoulders, standing there on my toes. "Again"

Throughout all of this, I simply couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong, or how to fix it. Seeing him stand on top of, my first thought was to grab his legs then slam him, but then I get an idea. I make a motion to grab his legs, but wait for him to inevitably jump off of me to grab his legs then and slam him to the ground then.
