Day 10

10min warm-up

5 min Shimmy drill (glute, knee, choo-choo to wassup wassup by diplo [crookers remix])

20min Put on a playlist and danced through it. I did some maya/taqseem drills-star formation, pinball, coil, and some foot patterns-mostly chasse step

20min Swordwork: tossing it from hand to hand, barrel turn, flash turns, and generally swinging it around. I am developing some calluses on my dominant sword hand, which is exciting. Left hand, still not so good. I am seeing an improvement on swinging my sword around and around in my right hand. It'd probably be easier with a lighter sword, but I'm in love with my nearly 3 pound gal.

5min Mock attacking spinach quesadillas in progress with my sword, to my partners chagrin. Channeling this guy:


10min Doing the down hip scales from Datura Online.

5 min Reviewing my song for Arisia. I've improvised to this song successfully in class, but lately I am rushing through it since I know I have a performance coming up. Gotta sink into it.

10min Cool down

Tomorrow is my last day of work before vacation and then the real test begins.
