This week I plan on catching up on my reading the I Ho Chuan member blogs, I really missed this part ... it helps keep me in touch with everyone and appreciate the struggles everyone is going thru. I learn a lot from all you guys.
Just wanted to say that I am really impressed with the efforts that the team has put into the demos, the ipad raffle, snow shoveling, finding more demo opportunities and the way the group is coming together ... the cheerleaders are the glue that keep everyone engaged and forging onwards, Kudos to you!
Sifu Brinker uses the analogy of baby birds sometimes so I am going to add to that and say when a baby bird first tries to fly sometimes the first few attempts involve some painful landings, its part of the learning curve. Eventually you will be launching from the nest and swooping across the finish line in a truly spectacular demonstration of aerodynamics, I can see it! You just need to decide when, and until then the I Ho Chuan team will pick you up, dust you off and encourage you to try again. How do I know this ... personal experience.
My shoulders are really sore from all the additional push-ups I needed to do to catch up what I missed doing on holidays (for some reason the sit-ups don’t hurt as much). Dancing with the hubby, he had to keep telling me to hold my own arms up and not rest on him. Pretty sad!
