The Details:
It's 68 at the house. The low tide was at 6:17. The sunrise was at 7:14. Echo got into a bag of chocolate overnight...Oy! I had an 8-9 video call with Jeff this morning. It happens that we only met until 8:30 because Eli has Strep Throat. Oy!
The Practice:
Yesterday afternoon:
I QW the Beach north towards The Pelican Condos, I did mobility stretching at the 1/2 way point. I was pretty sore/stiff from resistance training at the gym yesterday.
Today:
I QW to the beach just before sunrise. It was a washout with a very heavy cloud bank on the horizon. I shot the above image about 20 minutes after sunrise when a momentary splash of color appeared.
I started with a brief warm up using the first few of The 10 focused on health and consistency.
Next I did a Round (right side) focused on feeling and connecting to nature. I recited the Taiji Classics during Part I. I found myself using Counter Balancing more than usual because the sand I was practicing on close to the water would get mushy which makes balancing on one leg substantially more challenging. I was challenged!! Oy!
Next I did a round of Anyo Isa tuned into the flow with quality basics.
Next I did a round on Naihanchi Kata focused on smoothing out the changes that I'm making to that form.
