The Details:
It's 54 at the house. The sunrise was at 7:19. The low tide was at 5:36. I've got a 8-9 video meeting with Jeff. I'll be practicing after the meeting.
The Practice:
I went out to the Backyard to practice after my meeting with Jeff. We started to work on Master Choi's Baguazhang Standing Set. We got up to 'The Wild Goose Leaves The Flock' before running out of time.
I started inside with reading a poem from Evidence.
Next I did a round of Taiji Jian with my wooden Jian (photo above) focused on the tip of the sword with my eyes and relaxed balancing throughout the form. Relaxed balancing is easier on the patio bricks. Yay!
Next I did a full round of The 10+ focused on health, willpower and consistency.
Next I did a Round (left side) focused on health and relaxed balance while empty stepping, full squats and manifesting Jin in my fingers and hands.
Next I did a round of Anyo Anim focused on applications.
Next I did a round of Kusanku Kata focused on mobility, agility and health. There are few movements in this Kata that become more difficult to at 73! I'm making adjustments where needed but I'm also interested in 'pushing the envelope' getting lower and deeper in my stances.
I finished with Healing Qigong.
