Had a mentor meeting today with Ms. A. We had to reschedule from our normal Wednesday meeting because I had a German Ap (not fun let me tell ya!) But we got back at it today and I think we had a really good meeting. We talked about the minor break down that I had the other day and figured out maybe why it happened and how I feel better now.. Moral of the story being that it is okay it cry! We also filled out a sheet that is a check in about the progress I have made with my blog and research and all of that. I think I have been doing a pretty good job and Ms. A is on the same page as me. Love when that happens!
One of the big things that I have been working on with recital coming up is technique, especially turns. Having to turn on my non-dominant leg has definitely been a challenge and I have been trying to find some tips and tricks to help me. I found this video on YouTube and I think it has some good exercises that I can try. I think that the quarter turns and the exercise at the bar are going to be really the most helpful. They are simple but I can see how they will be helpful because they break down the bigger skill into smaller and more controllable parts! I am back in the studio Monday and will definitely be trying them! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_H15mY7ZXw&safety_mode=true&persist_safety_mode=1&safe=active
