Talk Less, Skate More

 My figures lesson with Danette on the Chandler adult skate.  I was running late, so didn't get a warmup and didn't scribe circles.

Today's lesson:

  • edges -- that's really all we worked on.  Posture and flow were just Not Good.  Uck.

This was not a very productive lesson, for two reasons -- 1) we spent waaaay too much time talking about miscellaneous, mostly non-skating things; and 2) mid-lesson I felt a bit light-headed and had to sit down for a bit.  In retrospect I was sick and wound up staying home the rest of the week, and beyond. Ugh.
