Hello!

I haven't blogged since boot camp. It's definitely hard to blog when you're feeling negative about things. I realize it's not Kung fu that's causing the negativity but other things bleeding into Kung fu. It'll probably get a lot better when I figure out what is physically wrong with me. I'm having a hard time coming to class because I don't want to feel like a black cloud over everyone, that's the last thing I want.

I've been talking about trying yoga for awhile, I've been putting it off because I'm not really a yoga type of person but I see the benefit in it. I visited a studio 10 minutes from my house and will be starting this week. They do meditation classes too which I may try. Everyone I talk too says they feel so relaxed after a yoga session. I'm also going to start using my benefits to get massages to loosen up my muscles. I'm hoping this helps me gain more flexibility in my kicks and also helps me relax. My plan is to do my 2 classes of Kung fu, my I Ho Chaun class, 2 classes of yoga and a cardio class of some sort at the gym per week. Sifu Playter suggested learning to juggle to help calm frustration while maintaining physical control. I can for sure see that helping a lot.

Anyway, this is where I'm at. Thanks Mrs. Csillag for reminding me to blog. I do better when I have people holding me accountable.
