The Details:

FYI - I made the mistake of hitting the AI button and it automatically put Google links in this post. The links are NOT accurate and I could not figure out how to delete the links. Oppsie, sorry about that!!

It's 67 at the house (I think). The sunrise was at 6:44. The last low tide was at 6:13. We've got an 11:30 lunch planned with Walker at Boston's Fish House.  

The Practice:

I QW down to the beach right after sunrise. I got up early enough but struggled with getting dressed and getting out the door. Oy Vey!!

I started with a brief Warm Up using the first few of The 10 Exercises.focused on health.

Next I did a Round (right side) tuned into observing the Principles from a meditative point of view.

Next I did a brief Healing Qigong

Next did a round of Cheng style Baguazhang 8 Animal Palms Changes 1-4 (both sides) using Mud-Wading Step throughout the Set.

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

Next I did a round of Wansu Kata tuned into the quality of my basics and the detail in this Kata.

Next I used a short Bo Staff to do a round of Monkey Staff (right side) tuned into the variations that's needed to do this Form with a short Bo Staff.
