Edges & Transitions

My figures lesson with Danette on the 7:30 a.m. FS at Chandler.  Ice was not so great.

I warmed up with forward edges; we started a little early.

Today's lesson:

• B edges -- just a few minutes on these.  In general they were okay.
• step forward -- we worked a bit on the step forward from the waltz-8.  Danette had me do a BO edge for one lobe then step forward on the same circle.  The LBO was more challenging (also, I'm not used to pushing onto an LBO from standing start!).  I need to lean back into the circle more and my body doesn't want to!  Urph.  The RBO is somewhat better.  We also worked these on the boards a bit.
