Wednesday @ acroyoga camp
Nov. 4th, 2009 04:25 pmToday's awesome new things were:
Today's awesome dialog, between puffs during a partner exercise:
"Do you do ashtanga?"
"Sometimes."
"How'd you get so strong?"
"Weightlifting!!"
( A list of exercises I should be able to take home )
No idea how I'm supposed to go back from this environment, where I'm learning so fast, to the one where I only get 1.5 hrs of acroyoga per week. I have to remind myself how splendiferous that sounded only a year ago! And that Thursday acro is also good, and we're having a handstand workshop there soon, and I have other practices that I also care about and that are (refer to the dialog above) very complementary.
I am sitting overhearing the teachers planning and plotting. Jenny just said "It's gonna get hard tomorrow." Sooooooo... tomorrow I bust out the pants with the blue flames.
- basing "high foot-to-hand", which involves me lying down with my hands straight up and someone standing on those hands.
- stradding up to the handstand blocks! I had a very active spot, but still.
- Pike jump up to handstand! ...I had a spot here too, but still.
