10/23/2023 1 Comment Week Four: Quite the jam-packed weekAlyssa- We got very busy this week and were not able to meet up but we are planning to meet this Tuesday. In the meantime, I have worked on all the skills Lila has taught me so far. For the turns in second, I have worked with a chair a lot to work on my legs and hip flexibility. I do not have dance shoes right now to spin with so I have been using my socks. I have worked really hard on the technique for the first spin so I have not attempted to add any more turns after the first one. I need to work on finding and spotting the object I am supposed to be looking at as well as keeping my heel off the floor so when I am ready I can get more momentum for more spins. For the calypso, I have been working on the second part a lot to make sure I get the correct position in the air. I have also worked on the shanaye up to the shanaye down including the approach. I feel like it's pretty solid. I just need to work on the connections. Lila will tell me more corrections and what I need to work on when we meet on Tuesday!
Lila: Sadly since we couldn't meet up I wasn’t able to get corrections this week. I continued to work on the skills Alyssa had taught me. The back walkover is looking very solid. Every time i do the back walkover it becomes more of one movement. Do not get me wrong I still fall on my back a decent amount or I will get stuck in a handstand. I need to work on kicking over as soon as u put my hands down, I still hesitate a decent amount. The Ariel is still a major work in progress. I don’t have nearly enough power and definitely don’t cartwheel fast enough. It’s definitely kicking my butt more than the other one. I think I just need to keep practicing and just take more risks with it . Thankfully Alyssa will be able to help me on Tuesday.
