It's 62 at the house. The sunrise was at 5:15.
We went to Troy NH to see Genna's new apartment and then to dinner in Keene with her, Dylan and Giulia at Elm City Brewery for Genna's upcoming birthday on 7/5 she turns 22.
We've to grocery shopping this morning.
Ed J. is coming later this morning to finish the rotary mowing of the fields.
The Practice:
I started in The Driveway with a round of Taiji Jian. I used my metal Jian (above)
I focused on following the Tip of my Sword with my eyes and moving from the Waist. I also recited the names of the Postures throughout.
Next I did Lazy D with my left hand holding the Jian.
Next I went up to my main training area and did a round of Anyo Dalawa focused on using quality Basics and Applications.
Next I did a round of Naihanchi Kata focused on the changes that I've made to this Kata.
Next I did a brief Warm Up focused on consistency and health.
Next I did a Round (right side) reciting the Taiji Classics during Part I & II. I had several Deer watching my, along with a Ground Hog and Chipmonk! When wild animals feel comfortable watching me practice I consider it a good omen.
