Janet was teaching today, and I asked her to tell me when I was in the chair. At my studio, the pictures of NFL player Tony Parrish are up in the lobby. Janet took me over to look at Parrish in awkard so we could talk about the correct form (she says his is pretty much 100% correct). Here's the picture if you'd like to check it out: http://www.gettyimages.com/detail/81364036/Sports-Illustrated

It was funny to hear to dialogue interrupted by "Jennifer, you are in the chair," but good to have that reinforcement. The chair is WAY lower than I thought it was - much closer to Awkard 3 than I had though. It was also REALLY difficult for me to maintain. But, I got down there, then lifted my heels without coming out of the chair, and held it until my legs were shaking, and then more, and more, and then a quick drop out right before "change." Triangle set-up was difficult today, as I think I used up most of my leg strength in Awkward. However, I know that consistently doing the things in class that are difficult more quickly makes them easy/easier. My personal Awkward 2 challenge is on. :)
