The Details:
It's 59 at the house. I've got a guitar lesson at 1 and then music in The Barn from 2-4 this afternoon.
The Practice:
I started on The Deck with Echo assisting with a full round of the original 10 Exercises. I continue to prepare this set to present at Saturday mornings class.
Next I moved to my main training area and did a Round (right side) reciting the Taiji Classics during Parts I & II. I remained focused on TLB (Taoist Longevity Breathing) in and out through the nose. I had a profound connection to nature.
Next I did a round (both sides) of Cheng style Old 8 Palms focused on Mud-Wading Step and Soong Shoulders. I did not rest my arms in between postures or when switching sides. I did on circle in each position around my Bagua Poles.
Next I did a round of Anyo Walo focused on the quality of my basics.
Next I did a round Sanchin Kata focused on Breathing, dynamic tension and connecting my DanTien (Hara) to my punches and strikes.
Next, using my Dragon Canes, I did a round of Modern Arnis Cane Anyo's 1-4 (both sides) I focused mainly on correct sequence and the overall quality of my postures and basics as well as applications.
I ended with a short Standing (PT) and Healing Qigong while I returned to the house to journal today's practices.
