Gee, guess you can imagine the weather conditions here by the thread title (hint: think "flaky...)
So, how's it going? Are you hotter than a jalapeno, or do you want to erase some practices this week?
Hot, hot, hot: Good lesson and practice this AM. We worked on jump entrances, lenthening the back edge from crossovers to make the entrance to waltz and salchow smoother. Also worked on half flip and half lutz to make them "jump" better. (I use half flips out of mohawks as footwork and they've become a bit "steppy," so it was time to get back to jumping). Half lutz had some progress, I've only really worked on this once or twice before. On Thursday, we go back into harness to work on toeloop. A good morning (aside from going from no snow at the rink when I left to blizzard like conditions 6 miles away in my driveway!!!! )
