Tuesday, July 17, 2007, Brooklyn, NY

This Tuesday's Skills Class may have been a little frustrating for some but it was just as cathartic & productive for others. Planche Turn Arounds seem to be the "in thing" lately...!

The wonderful Marisa B. is nursing a tender shoulder, so she's limited a little bit but still gave it her best efforts in a good spirit. Type A Elena G. & the comely Kristy M. are both learning their Planches in pursuit of smooth Planche Turn Arounds. Since she already had a solid Planche, Renee F. got her Planche Turn Around all in one night! And, the lovely Nicole A. remounted the board a few times (much smoother, I must add!) and was introduced to the F/E Uprise before practicing her B/E Uprise.

The elegant Maryam W. practiced her Planche Turn Around (getting a few sessions ago) as well as her regular Turn Around to make Full Round Trips possible in her near future! The lithe & worldly Emma S. took a step back to basics to hone her swing & form a little more. And, workaholic Lisa B. joined us to try her Planche for her 1st times in hopes of getting her Planche Turn Around, too!

Here's Renee helping Kristy w/her lines on the pedestal:
