Day 3: The Half Flower Breakdown

This one is so fun. But I think I giggled the whole time because I kept smacking myself. I really felt it in my wrist and arms and shoulders.

Ok I absolutely love this breakdown. I picked it up pretty quick because of that specifically!

DAY 3: Today I practiced with a wooden deco bar instead of the remote (still counting the days until my sword arrives 🥲), and it felt much smoother despite being much heavier. Curiously, I was able to pick it up more easily with my left hand than with my right, and after I had it internalized and switched hands, it flowed flawlessly on my right. Today felt good and refreshing. I wished it had been a little longer, but I think this desire for more will motivate me to come back to practice tomorrow. The deco bar says, “Home is where the heart is,” and I found that very appropriate for this moment in my life, for what I’m leaning on to get through it, and for what this practice represents to me.

My left side feels so goofy! More motivation to practice

If you're having trouble (like me), you can slow the video down to .5 and even .25 speed! It helped me so much.

This one was so much easier then the infinity flower

I'm loving this! Started slow but practiced moves even walking around. It gets easier.

It took me a little bit to figure out how to rotate my shoulder so that the sword would go behind me properly before starting the arc; it's like you wrap the sword around your body as you do it. It feels elegant...and maybe just a little bit sexy. ;) I'm definitely feeling it in my biceps, triceps, and rotator cuffs after practicing for an hour. I'm really looking forward to learning and integrating the full body movements. You Rock, Sabina!

oh this was one tricky. I can't wait to have my sword . This is fun.

Once I slowed down and took it step by step, it became more comfortable and very enjoyable. I even caught myself smiling!
