It has been fantastic to have the opportunity to partake in the dragon dance again! It almost feels like a different art when dancing with the dragon. Not only are you focused on your technique, moving in the correct order or in the right place in the form, but also trying to synchronize with your 8 other team members at the same time.
The last time I was part of the dragon dance, I feel it elevated my training to the next level, and this time is no different. It helps me with different techniques, multiple things going on simultaneously, as well as stamina.
We are on a short schedule to perform for the Canada day celebration, so we are working on familiar techniques we know and that is great to get back into showing form. I am very hopeful that this continues past Canada day and we are able to incorporate more difficult and new moves into the dance. This of course takes time, and lots of practice, so I hope everyone is as excited as I am.
I have a few ideas floating around that I think would be fantastic to incorporate, so we’ll see if they look as good as my brain envisions, and are able to come to life!
