Tree hugging

Tuesday Systema – 10 or 11 of us tonight. Arm pushing variations with partners gripping each other by the wrists, strong vs relaxed, using body movement primarily, maintaining structure. Then slow pushups with breathing variations..

Avoiding slow strikes with minimum movement, then adding light trapping. Tactile partner handwork – kind of a freestyle where one partner has to simply relax and go wherever the other leads. Mummy drills first just avoiding, then avoiding with strategy, then adding a gift. More slow pushups to finish.

Loren is concentrating on getting us moving  three dimensionally with relaxation/deliberateness/efficiency/structure.
