Carrots and Crumbs

 Both classes this week were filled with many bits of aha moments for me. Some bigger ‘carrot’ moments, and some smaller crumbs of wows. Even if the bigger moments of understanding come, the crumbs can be huge moments, and make big impacts, sometimes bigger than the obvious ones. 

Moving my foot ever so slightly brought immediate alignment, and balance. Maybe a crumb to some, but I believe it will make a world of difference for me in all of my forms. Technique tweaks also brought balance and a new understanding. I’ve been  practicing keeping these lessons at the forefront, and slowing down to concentrate more, as I found even practicing further in class I was going back to what I was previously doing if not specifically paying attention. Practice brings muscle memory so I need to be mindful. 

I was in a mindset of this is how it is supposed to be, and closing myself off to an eye for detail. The takeaways from this week showed me that small changes can be made to help transitions immensely, as of course I am not the same person as I was yesterday. Another reminder for me.
