Today I gave a class to my friends who’ve spent a night out. So I designed (with a bit help of Google of course) a nice sequence with some twists, relaxing and activating poses and fine tuned it during the class.
I’m very grateful to these ladies -and the confidence they have in me- because actually they already teach me how to teach before I even started with my teacher training. What works, what works less, sequencing and timing. I’ve got to work on more telling instead of showing and knowing the real names of all the poses. Grazie mille !
