No classes tonight.
Get out and help parents/neighbors move snow. Shoveling and/or walking behind a snowblower is an excellent way to practice the finer points of rooting/grounding your stances 😉 You can also practice proper structure or “joint stacking“ while shoveling. Use your legs, hips, and core…not your back!
