The Details:
It's 72 at the house. I'm going into The Studio to teach Taiji and Qigong Class this morning.
The Practice:
I drove into Greenfield around 7:30. Once I arrived and parked I deposited a bag of trash in the buildings Dumpster.
Next I unlocked the doors on Osgood and Federal Street, The Studio and opened all the windows and started the fans. It was hot in the room.
Next I did 4-8 Changes of Baguazahang's Yin Style 8 Palms Set. I focused on correct sequence and the overall quality of my postures.
Next I did a round of Anyo Lima focused on quality basics and applications.
Next I did a round of Chinto Kata tuned into mobility and agility as well as correct sequence on the correct angle.
Lucy, Nancy and Read came for class. I received a text from Jack letting me know that he couldn't make it this morning.
I started by talking about "light energy at the crown of the head" (Zhong Ding) I explained the concept in depth.
Next we did a round of The 10+ explaining a little while we practiced. I had already talked about having an intention or purpose for practicing a particular 'thing'. Why? I also talked about the principle of 1. Do This 2. Don't do That and 'What moves and what doesn't move?"
Next we did a Round (right side) I recited my version of The Taiji Classics during Part I. I tuned into having relaxed balance throughout the Round, especially during the kick sequences.
We finished with a brief Standing PT and Healing Qigong.
