Moves

 My lesson with Holly on the Gilbert adult skate.  Good ice, but a bit crowded... maybe 10 skaters? I had about a 10 minute warmup so I worked on stroking and perimeter XOs.

Today's lesson:

• 5-step mohawk -- we spent a bunch of time on these.  The mohawks themselves are actually much better.  We worked mostly on getting a better (i.e. not scrapy-up-on-the-toe) 3rd step (BO edge).  I had to remind myself to bend into the 3rd step more and push onto the edge.  That helped a lot, but I still tend to scrape when I'm getting ready to step forward.  Ugh.
• circle-8 -- actually really good!  I made it around all 4 circles.  We spent a little time on the final RFI to improve the push and flow.
• LFO3s -- just a few minutes on these to finish up.  For not having worked on them for several weeks, they were not bad.  I still need to work to roll down off the rocker more promptly after the turn.
