OOF.

had a dancer friend video me doing slip jig and oof! was it a blow to my confidence. I know I'm more than likely over-analyzing but it shows how the way I feel when I dance and how I actually dance are two very different things. my toes need to be turned out more, my arms in, my posture stronger and more steady.
how to fix this?

step 1: print out a picture of john carey with penned-in angry eyebrows. post it where you practice.

step 2: commandeer a mirror, any mirror. it may involved un-screwing things from off the wall but it's worth it.

step 3: strike a yoga pose. visualize your dances at their very best. repeat as much as necessary.

step 4: stare john carey right in the eyes as you work on your dances, piece by piece. try not to make creepy eyes.

step 5: rest. stretch. ab & back exercises.

step 6: run through your dances like a giant hell beast is chasing you around.

(repeat until KC)

I can do this. I can change what I don't like. there's still time. I don't have to give in. I'm better than that.
