What I did: A private GYROTONIC® session
Intention: To prepare for my Pretraining, learn more about the method that I manage but don't teach yet
Result: Lots of good discoveries today.
As usual, when faced with stress, I can concentrate intensely on the work. My swim lessons go better when there is something on my plate at work that is challenging. Yesterday, I encountered a "situation" minutes before my lesson and considered late cancelling my session. However, that little kick in the pants sparked me out of my Saturday stupor, and I entered my session "on the ready." The movements have started to become less mehanical and I began to feel the energy work that comes from the movement. It felt like a heat, a power was pulling up from the ground through my heels, a lot like the energy I used to generate with a regular T'ai Chi practice. Even learning new pieces of the work, I found the energy generated from doing the more familiar movements carried through into the new choreogrpahy I was learning, and the new movements seemed to happen by themselves as though that is what was meant to happen. This feels like a good path to be on with the work.
