Be careful.  I've been practicing a lot on my ki projection and can now
knock-out people through email alone...

"While free sparing last week I tore the soft pad of the bottom of my left 
foot
(ouch!!!!!!!!). The problem I have is that I have an all day training session
with my Master coming up early next week, which I've been waiting for, for
weeks. Has anybody any suggestions on how strap my foot or apply suitable
balms that would give me enough freedom to train."

ouch, glenn. i'm wondering how deep a layer of skin we're discussing. 
however, there's some good stuff out there to help you. might want to try 
some "second skin", which is kinda rubbery/jelly stuff in between whats 
similar to a silicone outer layer. you trim it to fit the injured area and 
use athletic tape to secure it. here's something like what i'm talking about:

<A HREF="http://www.ems.com/products/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=19181&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=471677">http://www.ems.com/products/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=19181&
FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=471677</A>

its not just for burns and blisters, either. when i was working as an 
athletic trainer, we had all sorts of football players, soccer players, and 
wrestlers who'd come in with bits missing off the feet, legs, elbows, knees. 
they loved this stuff.

if youre missing skin and its rather raw, be careful of what types of balms 
you try out. many "balms" are meant for external use only and tend to have 
stuff that'll burn like crazy on an open wound (camphor, etc). make sure to 
clean it frequently (often neglected when it comes to feet) and get your 
wound a lot of air time. additionally, some kind of triple antibiotic cream 
would be great to help the healing along. something with stuff like 
bacitracin, polymyxin B, neomycin (a.k.a. mycitracin or neosporin, etc).

ultimately, dont rush back in to class to do a lot of spinning kicks with 
that foot as your base. take it easy. if you must train, kick with the 
injured leg and rotate with your non injured foot as your pivot foot. take it 
easy and enjoy your training with your instructor.

good luck and take care,
melinda

"Better yet, can you wear martial arts shoes during the upcoming workout? 
e.g. the Discipline or Adidas shoes."

if you do decide to wear shoes, i'd still recommend something to cover up the 
wound. even if its just pre-wrap and tape. having an open wound on your foot 
inside a martial arts shoe is just going to aggravate it. if the inside of 
your shoes are anything like mine....well...you dont want your injury getting 
too up close and personal with all the sweat (causing your foot to move 
independently inside the shoe) and whatever else might be living in there :)

take care,
melinda... whose shoes kick without her
