Tuesday Practice

 


The Details:

It's 69 at the house. The sunrise was at 7:06. The high tide was at 6:27. There was a steady breeze coming in from the N N/W making it a little cool. I could have used another light layer. Oh well, the drizzle and clouds keep the riff raff away! I noticed Dave and Tonya walking the beach this morning. 

NOTE: I'm planning on driving up to Jacksonville this morning to visit my Mom.

The Practice:

I QW to the beach just before sunrise. It was a total wash out of a sunrise and sprinkling too!

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

Next I did a Round (left side) reciting the Taiji Classics during Part I. I focused on Song and having a light body. I also focused on expressing Jin with my finger tips.

Next I did a full round of Standing Post Training evoking a profound connection to nature's Qi.

Next I did a round of Taiji Dao using my wooden Bokken focused on the postures, consistency and the timing of steps and techniques.

Next I did two rounds of Anyo Tatlo focused on the correct sequence and direction of postures. I had some confusion around the postures right before the first shoulder lock.

Next did a round of Seiunchin Kata focused on full expression of the postures and consistency.

I finished with Healing Qigong as I returned to the house.
