[She won't say that's what's important, but if it feels good, then he'll be more inclined to do it again. That kind of positive feedback can be a good learning tool.]

The more you practice, the more naturally it'll come.

Better. More in control, I think.

Yeah, sounds like it.

[ Self-defense would be good. There wasn't really anyone in their group at home that could teach it. They all sort of.. improvised. ]

Meet me at the gym tomorrow morning. We'll get started.
