Moves

 My lesson with Holly on the Gilbert adult skate.  Mostly good ice (except by the Zamboni door); about 12 skaters.  I warmed up with stroking, perimeter XOs, and circle-8 (it was good!).

Today's lesson:

• perimeter XOs --  not bad.  We worked on making the BXOs have deeper lobes and more time on one foot.
• circle-8 --  first couple were not as good as in warmup (or yesterday), but it got better.
• power-3s --  eeep. We tried this in the pattern, just the L side.  The first two I did I totally reverted to 'bad' 3s.  The third one I set up correctly and then couldn't make myself turn.  Gaah. So we went and worked them at the crease again.  I can make myself do a more-or-less 'good' 3 from the standing start, and the back lobe was okay, but again I couldn't get myself to attempt the turn on the 2nd lobe.  Grrr.
