Friday Practice


 The Details:

It's 69 at the house. I've texted Jean about visiting Paul later this morning. I'm waiting on a text back.


The Practice:

I went out on The Deck with my trusty assistant Echo around mid-morning to practice.

I began with a full round of The 10+ focused on health and consistency.

Next I did a Round (left side) reciting the Taiji Classics (my version) during Part I. I had a glitch in the sequence when I stopped to let Echo inside. I simply went back and repeated postures just to be sure that I got it all in.

Next I did Changes 1-4 (both sides) of Yin Styles Baguazhang 8 Palm Set. I recited the names of the postures throughout the round and stayed focused on the quality of my Circle Walking and the Postures in the Changes.

Next I did a round of Anyo Apat focused on correct sequence in the correct direction as well as applications.

Next I did a round of Wansu Kata tuned into Fa Jin my punches and kicks as well as correct sequencing and flow.

Next I did a round of Taiji Staff (both sides) tuned into lower stances during the one legged squat sequences as well as focusing on relaxed balance during the single leg standing sequences.

I ended with Healing Qigong before returning to the house to journal todays practice in this blog.
