Today was our last class on hammock before we move on to hoop. We warmed up the same as last class.
During this class we learned and reviewed several moves. Some of which include spins, straddle, stag, gazelle, jolly jumper, divers roll, thigh roll, inverts, knee hooks, pullovers, and walking man.
I am already noticing that some skills from the first week are easier than last week. It’s interesting to see how I have to shift my brain from what I learned in silks in highschool and how easy it came to me. Where now 6 years later I am having to rebuild my strength and endurance and re toughen my skin as you hang and drop from weird parts of your body that you wouldn’t typically I other sports.
I found I really enjoy hammock, I think it is because of how similar it is to silks. I am definitely nervous about moving onto hoop as I have heard how painful it can be.
