I can FLOAT!!!!!

I can float!!!!!! haahaahhah...well...not really. and only once...well, but I did it! and I am pretty sure I will do it again. Anyhow it happened in class, and very unexpectedly, as my teacher asked us to press our palms into the floor and jump back, and demonstrated the light float back...something in my subconscious must have picked up how to do it and I did it perfectly. I felt SOOO light! I couldn't believe my toes touched the ground like a feather, seriously that was the feeling. However, I have failed to duplicate that again today, despite attempting it probably 15 times...sigh.

I can't for the life of me imagine how it was so effortless one second and then the next, I keep hitting the floor like a tonne of bricks. Why oh why oh why??!!!

Anyway just so I will never forget, I am gonna try and recall exactly how I did it. This is the replay...Looked up from uttanasana and saw B saying to press hands into floor. My hands were a bit in front of my feet instead of right next to it. He pressed into the floor and swept his legs back into chatturanga, and I did that too...hmmm..not really instructional here..I really just did that, I don't remember contracting my abs a lot, just maybe transferred the weight more into my hands, and I remember my legs swinging higher up than usual and sorta just float down to the ground....

Am gonna get p tomorrow morning early to practice primary and concentrate on the jumps again...so sign off now. Resolutions still yet to be penned...hee hee...please wait for later installments...;)
