BXOs
My lesson with JJ on the 7:30 a.m. FS at Gilbert as usual. Between traveling and physical therapy I am just not getting any freestyle time in right now! Grr.
Today's lesson was focused on back crossovers. We started by running the perimeter stroking/FXO/BXO Bronze move pattern; my time was 1:22 (12 second SLOWER than last time). Grrr. Then we spent our time working on BXOs. JJ had me do another exercise where I did a backward 2-foot glide in BXO position (outside foot further from my body than inside), do a push with the outside foot, a chasse' with the outside foot, then one with the inside foot. The point was to hold the position and bring the feet back to the original position after each chasse'. I kept wanting to have the inside foot further out after the chasse' and not bring it in closer to my body. JJ says I need to get used to that position so I don't have to think about it. Then he made me keep my head up :-). Eeep. Anyway... wow, back to basics but it's what I need now I guess. Grr.
