The Details:
It's 69 at the house and forecast to be a scorcher (90's) this afternoon. Ginnie leaves for the Cape for a week with Gerri and Kate this morning. She'll be back on Friday, In the meantime I'll be holding down the Farm and taking care of Echo.
The Practice:
I started inside practice fingerstyle guitar using my ES335 through my little positive grid amp.
Next I went out to The Deck to practice. I brought Echo with me to supervise and put the awning out 1/2 way so I had a bit of shade. It's getting hotter by the minute. I have all the air conditioners going full force.
I started with a full round of The 10+ focused on consistency and overall health.
Next I did a Round (left side) reciting the Taiji Classics during Part I. I tuned into opening and closing my spine, Taoist LBreathing in and out through the nose, and "Slow is Smooth, Smooth is Fast".
Next I did a brief Standing PT and Healing Qigong
Next I did a round of Anyo Anim focused on correct sequence and direction of postures, applications and the overall quality of my basic strikes, using full extension.
Next I did a round of Kusanku Kata tuned into mobility/agility, leg strength and overall health.
I finished with a round of Modern Arnis Cane Anyo 1-4 using a Dragon Cane. I did 1-3 on both right and left sides and #4 on the right only.
I returned to the house to journal my practice in this blog.
