Yes, it is a blog about walking, but I just have to talk about our Kung Fu class tonight.
Tonight, we learned how to take a fall...and turn it into a backwards roll/flip. So, I did not get all the way to the backwards roll/flip because I could barely do the "fall to my back, roll part way back, slam one foot down & pull my body up into a fighting stance & immediately start punching"!
When I finally got the above "half" roll/fall - everyone, including Sifu, clapped. It was one of the hardest things I have had to learn and I was so thrilled that I finally got it! My back is bruised, my abs are sore - but I can take a fall!
Of course, I need to practice a lot, but gosh, it felt good to learn something that I would not even have dared as a child.
Happy Walking!
