Anann was frustrated far more with herself than the gray male, but she reminded herself that it had been a test as well, to see what he might already know. It had certainly showed her that her typical method wasn't going to work well with the current situation at all. All she could do was change her method of teaching a bit and hope things went better.
She would show him a few more holds, there were all fairly generic grabs that an untrained fighter would be likely to use. She started by showing him the holds first and explaining their strengths and weaknesses. It was just as important to know what not to as what to do. Then she would let him put her in the hold so she could better show him how to get out of it before reversing their positions and letting him try a couple times.
Explaining things more thoroughly seemed to help a lot and the lesson went much quicker and smoother than the start had went. The afternoon was starting to grow late as they finished, Anann took a rain check on a lesson with the birds since they would be hunting tomorrow. There was no need to risk any of them being tired as a hunt could be risky enough as it was.
