Trampoline!

Seriously folks! I've started taking trampoline lessons as a way to improve my aerial awareness. Now "aerial awareness" is a term I only learned a few years ago - b/c it pertains to knowing where one is in space when flying (trapeze, but also acrobatics, tumbling, trampoline, figure skating...think of events and activities where people "fly" and aerial awareness is key.

I left my last lesson with my body singing. Even hours later, I felt like my cells were rejuvenating and growing as if they were brand new! My body was literally buzzing with new learning and new connections. 

And this after only doing basic back drops for an hour. Much of that time was also spent looking at and talking about the physics of aerial rotation, vectors and the like. All new to me.

Wish I had a picture to share with you! We'll take care of that next time! :-)
