11/2/2023 0 Comments Week Six: Halfway there!!!Alyssa- We did not meet this week so I worked on some of the drills and exercises Lila told me to work on. I primarily worked on a lot of hip stretches to make it easier to turn my hips out when I'm turning. It has helped with the pain in my hips a little bit but still hurts quite a bit. I've done a lot of calypos to try to straighten out my knee but it's nowhere near consistent yet. I can get some looking pretty decent but others are just not looking good at all. The turns in second I haven't put a lot of focus in this week. I have just worked on my hip turnout and used a chair to go in and then out with my hip and heel turned outward. I can get on turnaround but can’t quite continuously do multiple in a row. Next week we are meeting up so she can give me more tips for my turns in second and calypso.
Lila- This was our week where we didn’t meet up so I mainly worked on the exercises. For the aerial, I did the strength exercises and the speed exercises. I’m not quite sure how much they are helping because I do not think my cartwheel is getting any faster. I mean maybe I just don’t feel it. I am continuing to work on the back walkover even though I have successfully done it. I would like to straighten my legs more and be more graceful. That is going a lot better than the aerial. Since I got the base skill for my reach skill next time we meet I will start working on a back handspring. Alyssa gave me workouts to make sure I had the strength to do it. I am excited to try it!
