Friday Practice

 

The Details and Notes:

I'm counting today as Day #8 in the rotations (again). I feel that I need two days in a row, to adequately review the Kata and Anyo.

It's 66 at the house. The sunrise was at 5:12.

I didn't sleep well last night I was up until 3:00 or so and ended up sleeping in....Oy!

GG is coming home late this afternoon. Yay!

Echo's food is arriving sometime this afternoon.

The Practice:

I practiced in The Driveway.

I started with a round of all four Modern Arnis Cane Anyos 1-4 (both sides) I focused on Sequence and Basics I did well with the left side until I got to #4 and then I had some trouble with the umbrella to crossada sequences. 

Next I did a round of Anyo Walo focused on using the correct Sequence and Techniques. I squared it away. I think I need another day on #8.

Next I did a round of Sanchin Kata focused on Technique and Breathing.

Next I did a brief Warm Up

Next I did a Round (left side) reciting the Taiji Classics during Part I. I stayed focused on "Hang the Muscles, Open the Joints" and observing Relaxed Balance.

Next I did a round of Cheng Style Baguazhang Old 8 Palms, Changes 1-8 (both sides) reciting the names of the postures throughout.
