We started off the night w/some staff training w/newcomer Eli, quick-learner Keith, Manny "the Machine", the complex Susie W., the intense Tanya E., the incredible Christine C., the very-welcome-addition Yoni & the flyer former known as Amy W. And, the very lovely, red-haired Jordan was teaching her weekly silks class close by!
Eli & Keith got a "crash course" in positions. Manny did some catching & even threw his Uprise Shoot to our Christine! Yoni dusted off his swing & Planche. Susie practiced on lines for catching & realized she didn't need anyone to "hep" her off the bar. Tanya worked on her Half Turn to the mat/net before making some catches. And, Amy worked on her Double Cut Away!
Take a look at Christine's piked Fwd Over (the "Greg Louganis" as she named it):
(Christine is just being nice; she's waiting for me to be in the catch trap before catching most of her tricks...!)
We had really nice, able-bodied, fun grp of newbies from IBM in a class including Jen N. w/her beautiful eyes, the amiable Avi K., the very capable Chad & perma-smiling Michelle! Each made their 1st Knee Hang catches; Chad even got to learn AND catch his Set Planche for his 1st time, too, all in 1 class! We hope to see them again soon. The said they'd bring back some co-workers for team-building, so we'll show these original 4 some new stuff to wow their friends!
