A new reality TV show shot part of their pilot episode in our little space in Brooklyn. Ben was apparently supposed to be deathly afraid of heights & was to conquer that fear tonight! But, strangely enough, he did fantastically on his 1st try & made his 1st Knee Hang catch (to our Susie W.!) on his 2nd time up...!!?
It's little surprise that our Chem's & Cassie's swings are getting powerfully high! Each of them managed to hit the board to different degrees, but that did little to slow their development. YK, Keith & Tanya tweaked their swings a bit, too. Tanya worked on her Turn Around, but seemed a bit off tonight. No worries; everybody has to experience plateaus to find their heights.
Lisa R. came in to cut her swing through the air. She wowed us all by throwing her Double Back Tuck out of lines! Randy has developed a playful version of his Reverse Suicide: imagine him diving into a pool w/his feet sort of running in the air! Our Manny has gotten his Reverse Suicide down rather well while keeping it rather exciting! Susie practiced her Layout.
In her 2nd class ever, cute, little Sabina (w/the tiniest toes ever!) brought English-accented friend Tosh for his 1st class ever.

They both got their Knee Hangs & Back Flips quickly before making some Knee Hang catches!
Our Denise drove in (w/her ever-growing Luciano) to get some swings under her before making a nice B/E Straddle Whip catch & return! You've still got it, D! All of the photos I included on this update are courtesy of the bionic Denise "Candy Wideback".
Luciano keeping an eye on things:
The lovely Nicole A. rounded out the bunch as she worked hard to level out her swing on the F/E before remounting the pedestal smoothly once. She then threw a couple of easy B/E Splits catches & returns!
Keep an eye out for my emails & messages regarding the new programs we'll be running at Streb starting this month of August into the next few months of this year! Let me know what you want, what you like/dislike, and when you can take classes. Be there or be square...!
