When I finished changing for class this evening I walked out to the hall where I always stretch out and there was our instructor, alive and mostly healthy. Seems she was struck by some sort of short but nasty illness and spent most of the weekend recovering. She said she still felt a little bit off this evening, but was much improved. I'm quite relieved.
Today was an "off" day for me. The list of my screw-ups in class is long and undistinguished. Yet there are some things I can see are improving. I managed regular and step-over piqué turns pretty well, though not with the grace that some others in the class have. Spotting is becoming a habit rather than something I think about. Saturday we did chaînés turns and I did them reasonably well. I have a long way to go before I stop embarrassing myself, but there is movement in the right direction.
