November 30th

Where would I be if 8 years ago if I hadn’t taken the chance and dropped into the Kwoon for my first class. Well, I get a good taste of where I would be every fall, when after a long duration away from a regimented training regime I find myself struggling with joints that aren’t supported properly due to lack of muscle, cardio that is weakened, more prone to sickness due to an improper diet regime, loss of flexibility, strength loss, among other things.

But this also gives me an appreciation for what I have in this lifestyle. It gives me the motivation to climb back when I return from a work season, because quite frankly, I haven’t forgot that this is important to me.

Currently writing from Dawson Creek, in -32 degree weather.  This week I intend on focusing on the horse stance in my “Hotel training regime”.
