Hello,

I started to write my reflections and ideas after self practice or class on paper and this is will be it from now on.

1. As you feel pressure against you like a hand resting on your back or a push to the head, we tend to lean into that pressure. If you create this imbalance and follow it you can drop a person without even touching him like MR shows. Practice.

2 To free the shoulders you can clap at the front and swing the arms to the back and clap there too. Try to increase the space as you go and have fun. As in all things, let your breath lead the motion.
