new ideas and new paths

My wrist is sprained... big deal the Gods were so kind to bless me with a spair.

Due to the wrist sprain I have had to modify most of my break dance sets for the shoot I am doing.  If the wrist heals in time I may do my original sets, but it could be anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks for that.  Considering I have not given myself a deadline to finish this video I guess it all depends on how anxious I get once I have filmed everything I can without the use of the wrist. 

I am suprising myself recently both in and out of the gym.  With my new way of training for stunts it seems to have made me very comfortable and understanding of my boundaries.  It also has allowed me to push my previous boundaries over the edge of the cliff.  I don't consider what I'm doing to be elite or anything, but I definitely feel much more content with myself then I have in a while.  I can land something in the gym only a couple of times and then I emediately know if I am capable of doing it outside or not.  

A lot of recent developments. 

Curriculum

I finished writing out the end result of the curriculum so students can assess there current skills sets in comparison to what I believe to be skills that are neccessary to be an successful movement artist.  It needs to be accompanied by a video of sometype to explain the layout and that is the only reason I have not sent it out yet.  Also there is no progression order for the skills on the charts.  The Curriculum is more like a check off chart to see where you stand it is not there so much to teach you everything, that is what I am there for.  It is far from complete but it will be closer in the coming months.  No rush for quality.

More available classes

I have been meeting and discussing with certain individuals to help expand the venues where parkour can be practiced in a gym specifically designed and catered to the Movement Artist. 

More instructors

it is my intent to teach a dedicated group of instructors over summer to have more available due to the demands of good quality instructors.


My goals

I am going to attempt to go viral with some well developed music videos using dance, parkour, and and acro.  If you know any good musicians that wouldn't mind me using their music for such a video please send them my way. 

Right now

just took a few days off, been icing my wrist, and being creative with one armed pressing movements to see what i can accomplish.

That's all for now.
