Hi,

I'm surfing (friends of)^n (currently via [livejournal.com profile] dilletante) and I hope you don't mind me commenting.

adult gymnastics at MIT
I am unsure how it is that I don't know about this, and how I don't know you. I'd love to hear more about this (well, after Arisia).

I've been coming into gymnastic type stuff from dance (e.g. at the improv jam I was shown how to spin a one handed handstand) and I would like to at least try actual instruction. Among other things, now that I've been doing a lot of handstands, I've been hearing that there are differences between a gymnastic handstand and a contact handstand.

For a possibly better explanation of where I'm coming from, there are shots of a contact jam in Arlington some time back here (http://ci.baynbrigge.com/Boston/01252004/01252004.html). I'm the bald guy with a beard in some of them.

Be well.
