So, very physically active couple of weeks. Last week, kung fu MWF and exam on Saturday. This week, MTWF. Why Tuesday? because we are now gold sashes and there is a gold-sashes-only class every other Tuesday. So of course we went.
Right hip/thigh business still going on. Can't snap my kicks, and outward rotation is done carefully and within limits. Still better than after our first exam :P
Staff tonight, and I will continue to try to be careful. But it's possible we'll learn new stuff, so I want to be there. Or we may end up doing review stuff, which is okay too, since I still pretty much suck at flowers. Although a little better after yesterday's class. Instructor Ryan is really good at breaking flowers down into parts that make sense and at figuring out what you're doing wrong. Yay!
Yesterday there were only three of us (me, L, and Sunshine) and we were pretty comparable in experience so that was good. Accursed yoga moves as part of warmups again -- actually I kind of like them, but my abs are pretty whipped now. No jumping yesterday, yay!
Various standing and line drills, learned Fan Yao, Yi Lu Chuan review, then onto Cannon. New stuff in Cannon for all three of us. Then flowers, walking down the room and then sort of turning back/forth while alternating between downward and upward flowers.
Walking flowers was kind of funny at one point -- for one type R was talking about having one's hands in pretty close to the face/chest area, but when I tried to do it as close as he had it I got stuck -- um, I may not be particularly well-endowed, but I've got more than he has :D So, yeah, adjustments need to be made...
