Keeping Up

I find this year alot harder than last year. I haven't been able to attend my regular classes for awhile because of scheduling so I'm taking part in the advanced classes for now so I can stay in kung fu. I'm in Sanshao and we're learning lion dance in I Ho Chaun. There's also those classes where everyone is expected to perform their forms in front of everyone. I haven't been forced to do it, I've been open about how much fear I have about public performances but I still feel the pressure. I can't seem to keep up or do well with anything. I guess I just have to remember its ok to ask more questions, calm myself, remember that I'm not an experienced martial artist and remember I'm not naturally coordinated so it's going to take time. My body also isn't cooperating with me, so that's a whole other can of worms to deal with. I must learn patience with myself.

  1. I disagree with you when you say you can't do well with anything. I'm not in your class so I can't speak to your kung fu skill, but I can personally attest to your ability to motivate others. Your help has been instrumental in turning things around for me. I'm going to give you the same advice you gave me and tell you not to be too hard on your self. :)
