Core 3 Lesson 2

The lesson  today was pretty bad. Maybe Lil Shauna still didn't understand what she was supposed to do or maybe the bad flu left her too tired to concentrate and practice hard after the lesson. I think we will have to repeat core 3 if she continues this way for the remaining 2 lessons.

They continued to practise the one foot glide, alternate foot, clockwise and anti-clockwise. During class, she seemed to forgot all the hard work that we did to practice the week before. Zzzz... I didn't worry too much about the one foot glide given that she could balance somewhat the last practice.  I guessed I just have to remind her on what she was supposed to do and practice with her.

Then, they learnt this "moving 2 foot turn forward to backward while skating on a curve" stunt. It was sort of like a little twist combined with a little hop and after that twist, you glide backwards. It looked tough while they were practicing and I was busy filming the instructors, hoping that Lil Shauna could watch and learn after her lesson. Lil Shauna just couldn't seem to get that right and was whining badly when I made her practice again and again after lesson. In the end, I gave up and ended the practice session.

I think it is already great that Lil Shauna had progressed so far so quickly and that she is still interested.  I must remember to not be a tiger mummy and chased away her interest. Oh, by the way, I realised that I learnt together with Lil Shauna. This distant learning student can not do the one foot glide and even the twist thing better than Lil Shauna. Haha.
