This Sunday, the eve of my birthday, was a nice, easy, relaxing day w/a few good surprises...!
In the 1st class, it was a pleasant surprise that I had the young, beautiful & very talented Maya F. (accompanied by mother, Nina) flying w/us. Normally, I'd know well in advance of Maya's participation. She hasn't flown in a couple of wks, but she's still a potentially powerful & skilled flyer. Maya worked on her swing for virtually the whole class, honing it & recapturing it after 3 wks off from the rig. The always-welcome pair of Heather & Dana worked on their swings as well w/nice developments at unexpected moments!
Sisters Sarita & Kathryn were on an adventure/sport wkend starting w/the flying trapeze for their 1st times & then some planned kayaking. They started off by saying, "I can't do this/that..." separately at various stages. I promptly proved them to be blatant liars. Not only did they get their Knee Hangs, they kept going & going & going! It was only when Sarita got a nice, deep rip in her hand that they stopped. Kayaking w/all that paddling in the Hudson waters was suddenly not a very appealing next step. But, they said they'd be back...!
"The reason birds can fly & we can't is simply that they have perfect faith, for to have faith is to have wings." - Sir James Matthew Barrie
