Friday evening practice was smaller than usual with only three of us in total. Peter joined us and after a nice warm-up, we went through all three parts of the bare-hands form in about 26 minutes. Peter believes this length is about the same as that of semester-class. I think he's correct in his assessment. A small amount of Q&A followed with a generous helping of staff for desert.
Q: In Snake Creeps Down, should the torso be vertical.
A: No. The spine should be straight, but the torso will lean forward slightly. Your head should not go beyond your rear-knee. Also, keep the back heel on the floor.
Q: In Snake Creeps Down, how can I get lower and get my lead leg closer to straight?
A: A slightly deeper stance should help with both.
