Many things

 On my last class we did the lion dance and it was awesome until the end. First i received a cortisone shot in my knee and yes it is helping but also know it s a bandage to my knees injury.i am waiting for an MRI. Since the shot i feel i can push it harder but then the pain get in and stay .,before i had those warning to slow down . Now i am on vacation and usually i am looking forward to do my training in the nature but yet didn’t do much of my requirements.hiking and kayaking was part of my day and fishing at night. I can only do better on my next trip . I will be gone all week so won’t be in class.

Challenge

 This past weekend ,it was the tiger challenge unfortunately i was not able to participated due of personal engagement. Yes , i was disappointed but in the same time i had my own challenge.I went in jasper with a friend , no husband or kids . In the past i had always some doubt about backing up the trailer myself. Well i did it in almost no time and it was straight!! What have changed is my mind ,my focus ,my confidence and my intent. Amazing what you can achieve when all those words aligned together. I am still required lots of practice to be able to say that my eyes and hands are in harmony with my intent . I can say i got my medal!!

Kicking yourself

 Yesterday ,that was the grading for my kids . A very proud moment! Now they are telling me they are catching up with me and i should kick myself . Honestly last night i was stressed a bit at the beginning of the class. I was worried that my focus wouldn’t be there due having my eyes on her . I did look a few time then realized what a grow opportunity she have ! I am now looking forward to get more practice with them !

Eyes for details

Last Wednesday class we practice form .Thanks to todai csillag  for her eyes for details.Even if we know the form we can always learn and do better. I found difficult to keep the same intent throughout.When my knee hurts or shock me then my focus goes in the proctection aspect that brings me to loose focus on other areas like the rotation of my wrist for punch . Distraction can lead you to rush it and forget where you are and what you are doing .when working on one area of the form ,the flow can be different and feel it differently. I can only think about 2 words to wrap up Wednesday class . Adaptation and practice!
