weapons forms

Last I Ho Chuan class was awesome.  There are some really cool forms developing, it was great to see everybody's progress.

Finally I have the entire horse whisk form in my head.  Not perfect performance but got thru it without stalling too much.  My stances were better ... meaning lower/deeper and most of it flowed, that weird kick went okay so I guess I am reasonably pleased.  Had fun attempting to do the horse whisk form with Sihing Csillag.  Asked Sifu M Beckett for feed back and she said our styles of performing the same form are very different.  My performance is too soft and flowy, lacking some definition/phrasing, and my vectors need some attention,  Sihing Csillag is more intense and powerful, she suggested that we work together to meet somewhere in the middle of our two interpretations and we would achieve the intent/ideal performance. Looking forward to that ... Hey Sihing interested in doing a team performance for the Tiger Challenge ... I bet we could make it look awesome!  Bringing home the Gold!

I believe the Farmers day performance is the same day as the dance studio's 'Spring Extravaganza'  June 11/16 that Dean and I are committed too.  We are doing a QuickStep solo and are part of a group formation dance.  Therefore I will not be able to participate in the Farmers Day performances and because of extra practices to prepare I will be missing the I Ho Chuan meeting on the 28th.   Its the hubby's turn for an event.
