My Twilring Journey So Far... Week One, First Practice

          Hey Guys! Welcome back to my blog! First, Ill like to apologize for posting this post so late. Ive been very busy this week and I didnt really have the time to do it so yeah, now i did...LOL! On September 20, I had my first offical team practice. I was so excited to see my teammates and to go to this practice because ive been working so hard this summer and I wanted to show everyone my improvements. So far, I almost have my full right split. I am like a inch and a half from the ground. I have also gotten faster with my thumbflips and my llusions are getting a little better. My toss cartwheels are also great because so far at this practice, I caught them 3 out of 4 times! Thats really good for a person that started to do them last year
:)
     At the 1st practice, all 5 of my teammates(including me) were happy to see eachother. We practiced indiviual tricks like 3 turns and illusions and we also ran through our team routine. Our twirl team music is "Alice in Wonderland" Its a pretty awesome routine and I like twirling to it. Oh, before i forget to, we also got our new dance twirl routine music. I LOVE the song our coach picked for us. Its called the Kooza Dance and its from Cirque de Soeil. To me, this song is like broadway-ish but I still like it. If you want to hear this song, watch the video below     v





       This song seems super fun to twirl to and I am super excited to start learning the twirl rountine to it. We also had alittle "teamtalk" at our practice. Basically, my assistance coach told us how this year we cant have the problems that happened on the team last year. For example, no attitudes towards the coach or eachother, no coming late to practice, not attending practice for small reasons and also being prepared for each practice.
      So thats what basically happened at my first practice. If you have any questions or comments, comment below or email me at Lenaidj@gmail.com. Remember! Come back next week to read a blog post about my 2nd practice:) Have a great day:*
