Dec. 13th, 2003 01:59 amHuh. Apparently that icing + jow thing works. Not at 100% -- my legs were still a bit trashed, but not a bad practice at all. (Especially considering the wicked pace. Shifu was busy testing the beginners, and she is not half as hard on us as we are on ourselves.) And while my tornado kicks suck (okay, I did two that were halfway decent, and about twenty that sucked) my lotus kicks often don't... Whee.
So if I can get my cartwheels together, and get the tornado kicks down, and drop all the way back into bridge (I have the strength and flexibility for this through my back and abdomen, I've just been worried about my shoulder) I might indeed be ready for the next level exam. As soon as my feet stopped hurting my front splits became passable, if not great.
And I have a quarter more to do this. Maybe I'm just sleep deprived, but it almost sounds reasonable.
