Friday Practice

 

It's Friday; I had an 8-9 video meeting with Jeff. Afterwards I went out to my main training area to practice. It's the second practice I've had in Leyden since our return yesterday afternoon. 

I felt a lot of resistance from the three days of travel and 'get it in' travel practices.

I started with a full round of The 10+ focused on health, balance, leg strength and coordination and of course consistency and perseverance. 

Next I did a Round (right side) focused on opening and closing my spine and using my waist to direct my movements as well as feeling Jin form in my fingers and hands. I recited the Taiji Classics during Part III

Next I did a round of Anyo Apat focused on using full extension in my kicks and punches as well as applications.

Next I did a round of Wansu Kata tuned into knife hand positions, health and consistency.

Next I did the first four changes of Yin Fu 'linking set' (Baguazhang) around my Bagua Poles. I tuned into relaxed balance and health/consistency.

I finished with Healing Qigong.
